Week 1

I did not attend lecture for this week due to a bad headache the day before. However, I did some read up on the lecture reading and the notes.

The lecture slides provided some insights on the discussion and definition of what e-Learning is all about. It takes on the fundamental form of learning through the usage of, but not only limited to electronic technology. E-learning can be represented in various forms, through different mediums, with examples like E-books, digital video, virtual learning, games and html etc.

According to the reading of Rosenberg, The e-Learning Revolution, the traditional classsroom-style, teacher-to-students teaching method is swiftly being replaced by e-learning as science and technology advances throughout the decades. It brings us back on a history journey to discover how learning/teaching methods have evolved over the years and flashes images of what used to be defined as conventional; now has been superseded by the technology that we have become so enslaved to.

As for the other 2 readings, I have yet to finish them.
