In the age of e-learning
With advancing technology, the process of teaching and learning is also undergoing radical change.Technology has completely revolutionised classrooms. Whether it is submitting assignments and projects, or making classroom teaching more interactive, the applications are manifold. Instead of carrying heavy bags, students can now carry an enriched digital textbook which contains all the study material.

You can complete many of our degree programs at your own pace. World Campus courses are asynchronous - meaning you don't have to attend online classes at a specific time. Our students use a combination of self-study and peer-to-peer interaction over an online learning network to facilitate instruction. You'll complete weekly assignments, readings, discussions, and occasional group work, as well as exams and other activities designed to enhance learning outcomes, all at times that are most convenient to you.
University of Massachusetts,BOSTON
Online education is now way beyond a novelty. Some 4.6 million students took at least one online course during the fall 2008 term, or one in four enrolled students, according to the most recent Sloan Report on Online Learning.
Online education courses are delivered entirely via the Internet. Typically, students download the course materials right to their computers, and interact with professors and classmates in online discussion groups. Homework and tests are submitted through the computer. Many courses also incorporate video and audio lectures.
DREXEL University Philadelphia, PA,Pennsylvania
Learn how leveraging collaboration can lead to improved learning outcomes. Through a collaboration between Instructional Technologists and faculty, we transformed our undergraduate Behavioral Neuroscience class and lab experience to incorporate eLearning and social media by including digital storytelling, iPads, and meaningful interaction with high school science students.
UNESCOPlace de Fontenoy, Paris,France
A variety of studies have evaluated the impact of eLearning and concluded that - supported by holistic approaches that include appropriate policies, infrastructure, professional development, and curricula - eLearning can help produce positive outcomes.
One-to-one (1:1) eLearning provides each teacher and student with a dedicated laptop for use at school and, in many cases, at home. Laptops serve as personal teaching and learning tools that are used throughout the day for many educational tasks and subjects. In a 1:1 environment, students get the maximum value from access to PCs, Internet connectivity, and their integration into the education environment.

Michigan State University ,East Lansing, Michigan, United States
Many studies of e-learning programs have concluded that the key to ensuring successful outcomes is to blend more traditional classroom approaches with those that use technology. E-Learning approaches should be treated as a powerful tool that teachers can use, but teachers need to learn how student learning changes with e-learning, and how to alter their teaching methodologies with pedagogical approaches that take advantage of the opportunities afforded by e-learning. A blended approach mixing face-to-face classroom methods with technologymediated activities seems to provide the highest learning outcomes.
Association of American Medical CollegesWashington, DCUnited States
E-learning is the use of Internet technologies to enhance knowledge and performance. E-learning technologies offer learners control over content, learning sequence, pace of learning, time, and often media, allowing them to tailor their experiences to meet their personal learning objectives
The University of Illinois (illinois.edu), United States
"Compared to the more traditional educational paradigm - the broadcast model, where knowledge is delivered from professor to student from on-high - e-learning turns teaching and learning into a shared endeavor,"
E-learning is defined as technology-based learning. Lectures, homework, quizzes and exams are delivered almost entirely or completely online. In some instances, no in-person interaction takes place over the length of the course.
Columbia University, South America
Columbia's in-depth electronic courses allow you to enhance your knowledge in fields such as education, engineering, computer science, and business. Created in collaboration with our world-class faculty by Columbia's professional schools and their affiliates, most of our e-courses are for-credit learning experiences combining multimedia, interactivity, feedback, and discussion.
Rochester Institute of Technology ,New York ,US
The creation of the Innovative Learning Institute (ILI) is a strategic response to the rapidly changing e-learning and educational technology landscape in higher education. This has been exemplified by schools such as Stanford, Harvard and MIT, as well as other universities that have aggressively used technology to redesign their existing courses. In Dr. Destler's words: "We must move to ensure that RIT will be a leader, not a follower, as these new educational paradigms are developed."

University of York, Heslington, York, United Kingdom
E-learning refers to the "use of technologies in learning opportunities" (HEFCE, 2005), addressing the full range of pedagogic opportunities supported by ICT. Learning technologies may be employed to support class-based teaching on campus, as well as providing support for flexible learning and distance learning outside the physical classroom.
University College London, United Kingdom
'E-learning' describes teaching and learning methods that are supported by the use of technology. Content such as lecture notes, timetables, reading lists and web resources can be easily uploaded to course pages, providing a constant and easily accessible reference for students to consult. A key benefit of e-learning is the increased opportunity for dialogue it offers to students and teachers, which in turn enhances the learning experience
Durham University, Durham, United Kingdom
e-Learning is a term used to describe the way information and communications technologies can be used to support and enhance learning and teaching (including assessment).
Tallinn University, Australia
The E-learning Centre provides a number of technical solutions for E-learning and provides advice to the academic staff on e-learning environments. The Centre also provides consultancy services for building e-courses and creating e-learning materials.
