e-learning. E-learning can also be termed as a
network enabled transfer of skills and knowledge,
and the delivery of education is made to a large
number of recipients at the same or different
times. Earlier, it was assumed that this system
lacked the human element required in learning.

6. • E-learning courses provide an enabling platform by
virtue of which the professionals can upgrade their

management.

7. Concept
• E-learning concept strongly correlated to the use of

13. Types
1. Synchronous
2. Asynchronous
3. Web based learning
4. Blended

14. • Synchronous e- learning – this is where there is a
trainer or facilitator online at the same time as the
learners. Learners can, there for interact with the
other learners and the trainer through chat audio
conferencing, & or video conferencing. This is similar
to classrooms based learning, although individuals
are not in the same physical location.
Examples include :
• Listening to a live radio broadcast
• Watching live a television broadcast
• Audio- video conferencing
• Online lectures

15. • Asynchronous e-learning- this is where there is no
trainer or facilitator involved with the learner. Instead,
the learner progresses through the course or material
independently there may be features that enable
interactivity, such as asking a question or communicating
with other learners , but they are not in real time.
Examples includes
• Self paced courses taken via internet or CD- ROM
• Videotaped classes
• Stored audio-video web presentations or seminars

17. • Web based learning- is associated with learning
materials delivered in a web browser, including when
the materials are packaged on CD- ROM or other media.
Disk .
• Blended learning- Blended learning combines e-learning
tools with traditional classrooms learning to ensure
maximum effectiveness.
Examples included
• Face to face interaction there by leading to social
benefits.
• Personalized system of instruction which requires
minimum interaction.

18. Advantages

• The process undoubtedly has its limitations
• Computer literacy and access to equipment any e-
learning system literacy basic equipment and a
minimum level of computer knowledge to option with
the system.
• some topics are not appropriate for e-learning certain
subjects like sports cannot be explained through E-
learning .
• The Students themselves can be a limitations E-learning
: the E-learning has flexibility &student central nature so
the student meet be well organized self-motivated.

24. • &have good him management skills success of e-
learning program depends upon amount of effort put in
by the student
• Limited access to a computer as well as the Internet.
• Required computer skills especially for beginners.
Bandwidth limitations: lower bandwidth means slower
performance for sound radio and intensive graphics
causing long waits for download
• Loss of human contact : feeling that they communicate
largely with a machine rather than other human beings.

25. • Missing social contact.
• E-learning system will replace the friendly face
• E-learning programs are too static level of interaction is
too limited
• Development &lost: E-learning system take more money
to development than expected.
• More time and more money
• Lack of motivation.

26. Conclusion
