eLearning: Theories, Design, Software and Applications - Second Edition - 2016

This book investigates the eLearning in its many different facets in four sections: Theories, Design, Software, and Application. The term was coined when electronics, with the personal computer, was very popular and internet was still at its dawn. It is a very successful term, by now firmly in schools, universities, and SMEs education and training.

Globalized E-Learning Cultural Challenges
23
 
 
Globalized E-Learning Cultural ChallengesCross-cultural challenges are part of today’s life. An e-learning course never stands alone. To a learner from a different cultural background than the instructor’s, an elearning course also acts as a window on another culture. The material may contain many clues about the social assumptions of the society in which it was created. Along with the material, the student may be faced with additional practices such as how to subscribe, and how to be supervised and graded. All these elements of learning can be quite valuable for the learner, even though they are not in the terms of reference. What is more, they cannot be customized away. And I would put it even more strongly: They should not necessarily be customized away. People in general, and learners in particular, are very good at making their own translation from what an e-learning tool offers into what they need from it.

701 e-Learning Tips

701 e-Learning Tips
Here are a few pieces of CONTEXT for the CONTENT in 701 Tips for e-Learning:

• One person’s major AHA tip may seem quite elementary to another person. We have included the widest range of advice and perspectives to address both new and very experienced e-Learning implementations.

• The e-Learning Tips were reproduced as submitted by the sender with a minimum of editing. Our goal was NOT to impose a singular style but to share the original thoughts of your colleagues from around the world. (For example, there are many ways in which the phrase "e-Learning" is spelled.)

• We were not able to include EVERY tip submitted, as we received thousands. If yours was not part of this book, please understand. We will be publishing another TIPS book in a few months, and feel free to send us additional ideas to

[email protected].

• A number of TIPS were submitted by colleagues who asked to be anonymous and a few came in without a name in the FROM: field.

• While we funded this project through some low cost sponsorship, no tips were included because of this sponsorship. The MASIE Center continues a three decade commitment to being vendor/supplier neutral.

E-Education Applications: Human Factors and Innovative Approaches
E-Education Applications: Human Factors and Innovative Approaches enforces the need to take multi-disciplinary and/or inter-disciplinary approaches, when solutions for e-education (or online-, e-learning) are introduced. By focusing on the issues that have impact on the usability of e-learning, the book specifically fills in a gap in this area, which is particularly invaluable to practitioners.
