e-Learning?

e-Learning can be very widely interpreted. To consider e-Learning as any involvement of electronics in learning is too wide. That means that using pocket calculators, computer assisted learning, computer based learning, the Internet, web-based learning, simulations, drill and practice on computers and much more are all included.

Traditionally e-learning was associated with web-based learning, more specific where a learning management system is used. It was also considered to be a distance education application.

Blended learning started to take off and now e-learning is also part and parcel of normal campus lecturing.

e-Learning in this context can therefore be considered to be a learning experience that has a mainly web-based learning part managed by a learning management system.
