Any form of learning/teaching via a computer is rapidly becoming a major mode of educational delivery used by schools, colleges, and corporations. This course is a comprehensive overview of learning and teaching in "cyberspace." It provides teachers, college faculty, and staff with a formal survey of this new and growing educational paradigm.
After the discussion of the central aspects of the subject (definition, technologies, variants), we will deal with the underlying hardware and software concepts and the ways in which e-learning units can adequately be made use of. Furthermore, we will look at the history of machines in education, from simple CAI to today's web-based approaches.
