This guide summarizes current research and commentary on e-learning, examining the key issues facing organizations exploring e-learning for employee development. The guide contains six sections. The first section provides an introduction to the issue of e-learning and a summary of the issues discussed in the remainder of the guide. Section 2 summarizes the various dimensions and descriptions of e-learning, concluding with a definition of e-learning as "the delivery and administration of learning opportunities and support via computer, networked and web-based technology to help individual performance and development." Sections 3 and 4 describe potential benefits and drawbacks of e-learning. Benefits include that e-learning is timely, accessible, learner-centered, cost effective, up-to-date, quick, retainable, risk-free, consistent, interactive and collaborative, easy to track, and that it increases information technology skills. Drawbacks include that e-learning can be technology-dependent, incompatible, unsuitable for some types of training, unsuitable for some types of learners, heavily reliant on self-discipline, less interactive than one would think, initially expensive, still dependent on human support, and difficult to support with content. Section 5 discusses key issues to consider when developing e-learning, including how best to blend new e-learning technologies with traditional classroom approaches to training; whether to buy new off-the-shelf materials, develop content externally or in-house; how best to provide learner support; how trainers will adapt; and how to tell whether the strategy is working. The final section concludes with a summary of the issues and potential of e-learning. The guide includes a glossary of 13 terms and a resource guide listing 64 reports and articles, 7 websites, and 8 magazines and journals. (KC)

Traditional, on-line e-learning theories are contextually driven and influenced largely by learning management systems (LMS) through the use of mere technology. The whole idea of e-learning was to allow a student to have a high degree of learner self-direction and personalization within the learning process. The rapid development of technologies within the field of "E-learning and Web 2.0" is allowing for new educational strategies to support self-regulated learning in higher education contexts through the use of personal learning environments (PLE) and Cloud to provide a more tailored learning experience. The first chapter of this book explores the communications and creativity formats that web 2.0 social media can offer students within the higher education sector for supporting learning opportunities by exploring different types of learning theories and how to integrate Web Based Platform technologies into the delivery and what supporting mechanizing will be required while exploring E-learning in the Cloud. Chapter two describes the practice and evaluation of an e-learning training program for vegetable growers, and focuses on the effects of periodic learning support through the sharing of learning progress reports in the e-learning program. Chapter three explores the good practice of Estonian e-learning community to evaluate and assesses the quality of e-learning courses. Chapter four verifies that some e-learning challenges are unique to the e-environment, and are specific to the learner's expectations, experiences, satisfaction, and performance. Chapter five describes how to develop remote real-time signals monitoring mechanism via Internet with the cloud using a case study. Chapter six reviews the challenges for education and training in non-surgical oncology, the e-learning resources that are currently available and compares them against best practice guidance on technology enhanced learning. Chapter seven studies how to develop learning systems to support English vocabulary learning by analyzing learning log data and automatically detecting personalized weak points on listening comprehension. The last chapter explores the significance of correlates of academic dishonesty in e-learning in relation to variables such as sex, student status, academic class status, and academic success in higher education in the United States.

An emergence of technology to enhance teaching and learning in higher education has increasingly called for an interest from academic institutions, and subsequently brings the potential of change in education. A new style of teaching and learning has been introduced with a still evolving nomenclature for terms such as tele-learning, online learning, web-based learning, and e-learning. Along with the wave of technology, its importance has influenced the national policy of many countries, and then become an international issue. It appears that the national education plans of many countries have included this in and highlighted it as a major focus by allocating budgets to the development of technical infrastructure to facilitate this new form of learning. The beginning of the concept of open and distance learning, followed by tele-learning, and lastly e-learning is the stream of this study. Bringing innovation to organisations, however, is not an easy process. The study here highlights this point. Results from many studies indicated that a lack of good preparation could result in less success, or at worst failure, for the organisation.

"Over the last decade, the practices by which scholarly knowledge is produced – both within and across disciplines – have been substantially influenced by the appearance of digital information resources, communication networks and technology enhanced research tools. Viewed from a methodological perspective, the rich ICT-based environment in educational settings influences research methods, ethics and the general conduct of research. Methodological Challenges When Exploring Digital Learning Spaces in Education represents a collection of work of established academics as well as emerging early career researchers all of whom focus on various methodological challenges. From numerous perspectives, the chapters in this volume deal with three particularly demanding challenges for educational research in digital learning contexts. The first challenge concerns how research manages to explore networked learning within a multi-faceted ICT environment. What kind of research designs and forms of data collection are able to grasp this complexity of multiple learning taking place within these contexts? The second challenge deals with how researchers experience the research context and interact with various actors within these settings. How to capture and understand interaction between contexts and across different dimensions of contexts in time and space? And finally, the third challenge is about exploring how children make meaning across physical places and virtual spaces. All together, these challenges are questioning the traditional research methods that we use and are familiar with. This volume is devoted to stimulating debate about the various methodological challenges facing the researcher in the digital sphere of educational research, and furthermore, exploring what kind of new methodological approaches these challenges impose. It is aimed at students, researchers and academics within education and those working with learning across disciplines and contexts interestedin methodological issues. Greta Björk Gudmundsdottir lives and works in Oslo, where she is a Researcher at the Norwegian Centre for ICT in Education. Kristin Beate Vasbø also works and lives in Oslo, where she is an Associate Professor at the Department of Teacher Education and School Research, University of Oslo. "

This research is situated in the New Zealand (NZ) Regional Health School (RHS) service, comprising the Northern Health School, Central, and Southern Regional Health Schools. Use of e-learning is explored in this specialized area of the NZ education sector. RHS teachers' practice of teaching chronically unwell students in a variety of locations is described, and challenges to student and teacher participation in e-learning identified. Challenges relate to four key factors of student illness, student location, managing student learning needs, and the relative isolation of the teacher. It is argued the situation of isolation for both students and teachers defines RHS as a remote community. In exploring RHS teachers' perceptions of e-learning use with their students, the potential for improved learning, teaching and communication opportunities in RHS is examined. The vital role of participation, and participation with others, is identified for both student and teacher. With reduced access to a traditional school, e-learning provides an opportunity for RHS students to extend their learning outside of their home or residential health setting. Engagement in e-learning on their own, and with others, has the potential to reduce the effects of isolation within the remote setting. Teachers also have the opportunity to extend their learning outside of their sometimes isolated work environments. The affordances of e-learning for RHS teachers include the ability to improve contact and share practice with others. Progressing e-learning within RHS is an aim of this research, mirroring a trend across the education sector. Recounting examples of teachers' practice and perceptions may assist in motivating others to reflect on the benefits and challenges of their own use of e-learning. Enhanced methods of support and professional development for RHS teachers in e-learning will benefit teachers and students in RHS and other remote settings.

Since the year 2000, the rapid development of educational technology and internet technology has brought significant attention to e-learning. Many studies have focused on understanding how to enhance learners' experiences and promote deeper engagement with learning content through e-learning to achieve better learning outcomes. Subsequently, from early 2020 over the span of the next three years, due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, governments across many countries and regions implemented policies such as "Classes Suspended but Learning Continues," by conducting teaching and learning online. This has led to significant attention to e-learning by the academic and educational communities. Consequently, during these years, many studies on e-learning in the context of the pandemic have been published. However, as we enter the post-pandemic era, physical learning spaces are no longer restricted, and people have gained new insights into e-learning based on their experiences during the pandemic. Additionally, in the context of the ongoing digital transformation of education, it is also necessary to further explore e-learning topics in the era of Education 4.0. In summary, this book compiles the latest research findings on e-learning, helping readers to understand the e-learning research outcomes of scholars from different countries and regions.
