There are so many different ways of learning. The old fashioned having just teacher at the front of the class with the chalk board, or blackboard as it was known originally, has a tendency to turn students right off learning. The dullness of some teacher presentations is a problem – that monologue can seem like a long stream of being talked at rather than to. The beauty of online e-learning is the variety of presentations, be it a click and respond or simultaneous one to one engagement over video – there is something happening all the time to encourage thought processes whilst emphasising the subject matter. Virtual learning enviornment is a set of teaching tools which have been developed to really boost the learner’s experience by involving all sorts of other facilities such as computers, curriculum mapping and means of breaking down the curriculum to be able to track and assess. Online support for and from teachers via email, threaded discussions. The teacher has additonal user rights and will create or modify the curriculum contemt so as to enhance and track the student performance and result.
