013093 e-Learning Technologies

In this subject students engage with selected problem-oriented scenarios, chosen to fit with their needs and experiences, in which actual learning problems are presented, and which have led to the development of particular e-learning contexts. By considering steps, both actual and possible, towards the solution of these learning problems, students develop a basic understanding of a range of e-learning technologies, equipping them to take an informed part in interdisciplinary e-learning design teams. As a central part of their experience in this subject, students are introduced to and develop a basic familiarity with a selected range of technical solutions that are possible for a variety of educational problems. Students' technological fluency is further developed through their consideration of the technological principles implicit in e-learning systems.
