Learning is not simply associated with modes of delivery or the
functionality of a particular technology, but forms part of a conscious
choice of the best and most appropriate ways of promoting effective
learning.
Best practice e-learning enables accessible, relevant, and high-quality
learning opportunities that improve student engagement and
achievement. e-Learning has the potential to transform the way teaching
and learning takes place. It is about using technologies effectively across
the curriculum to connect schools and communities and to provide
accessible, relevant, and high-quality learning opportunities so that every
student is better able to achieve their full potential.
