2. E – Learning The letter `e’ in e-learning stands for the word `electronic’. So it is stated as “Electronic Learning ” In 1963 Bernard Luskin installed the first computer in a community college for instruction as computer assisted instruction. E-learning pioneer BERNARD LUSKIN(2001) explains `e’ as exciting, energetic, enthusiastic, emotional, extended and educational. It is a store house of education, information, communication, training, knowledge and performance management.

3. D efinition s of E - Learning Darin E. Hartley ( 2001) Teaching and learning process by using internet media, intranet or other computer network in order to give the material to the students. Matt Comerchero E-learning is a means of education that incorporates self-motivation, communication, efficiency, and technology.

4. D efinition s of E - Learning According to Derek Stockley 2003 The delivery of a learning, training or education program by electronic means. E-learning involves the use of a computer or electronic device (e.g. a mobile phone) in some way to provide training, educational or learning material . According to LSDA (2005 ) E-learning is learning supported or enhanced through the application of Information and Communications Technology.

5. Features of E- Learning E-learning is dynamic: today in the era of globalization, it helps in availing the online experts, best sources and quick approaches in a single mouse click. E-learning is individual i.e. centered across the learner and personalized to the individual. E-learning operates in real time that is available for 24* 7days E-learning is comprehensive It is network assisted and often learning is done within the fraction of time. Blend of learning methods such as—virtual classroom, simulation, community and even a classroom.

6. advantages Reduced overall cost Learning times reduced Increased retention Consistent delivery On-demand availability/ Flexibility Expert knowledge Self-pacing Interactivity Confidence Transportation Cost and time saving Reducing Environmental Impact

7. Disadvantages L earners need to have access to a computer as well as the Internet. Learners also need to have computer skills with programs such as word processing, Internet browsers, and e-mail. E-learning also requires just as much time for attending class and completing assignments as any traditional classroom course. S tudents may feel isolated from the instructor

8. Disadvantages Slow or unreliable Internet connections can be frustrating Teachers' lack of knowledge and experience to manage virtual teacher-student interaction Lack of direct and immediate feedback from teachers Bias towards tech-savvy students over non-technical students Asynchronous communication hinders fast exchange of question Danger of procrastination that is to postpone or delay needlessly

9. Types of E-learning

10. Synchronous E-Learning Synchronous learning: learning and teaching takes place in real time (same time) while the trainer and learners are physically separated from each other. Examples include: listening to a live radio broadcast watching live a television broadcast audio/video conferencing Internet telephony online lectures two-way live satellite broadcast

11. Asynchronous E-learning A synchronous learning is the fact that that the trainer prepares the courseware material before the course takes place. The learner is free to decide when he wants to study the courseware . In other words Asynchronous e-learning where people are not online at the same time and interaction does not occur without a time delay, allowing people to participate on their schedules. Examples include: self paced courses taken via Internet or CD- ROM videotaped classes stored audio/video Web presentations or seminars recorded audio tapes Q & A mentoring reading e-mail messages

12. Improves efficiency both in learning and teaching Increases motivation Deepens understanding Promotes collaborate learning Gives new approach to learning and working Provides new ways interacting Paves way for personality development Increases social skills Creates interest in learning Impacts on Teaching Learning Process

13. Helpful for self-evaluation Wide reach and consistent User convenient Flexible and rich medium for students Useful tool to address students with different learning and cognitive styles Self-pacing for slow and quick learners, reduces stress and increases satisfaction. Impacts on Teaching Learning Process

14. Building an e-learning culture Learner: Self-directed Self-motivated Self-regulating Lifelong learning Building an E-learning Culture Teacher: Develop knowledge & skills Understand learning and its need Facilitate learning Create learning opportunities Administrator: Create Learning environment Provide ICT infrastructure Resources for lifelong learning

15. Future of E-learning

16. CONCLUSION E-learning is not intended to replace conventional methods and learning in classroom. Its aim is to create an augmented learning environment where technology is used to deliver a combined range of teaching and learning techniques aimed at maximizing the individual’s participation and achieving the goals in the learning and teaching process as a greener world .
