4. Introduction to E-learning Any type of learning directed by means of an electronic gadget, commonly on the Internet is referred to as e-learning. With the help ofe-learning courses, our learning experience becomes simpler and quicker. E-learning has become a popular and effective medium through which students studying in educational institutes, and professionals working in organizations can grasp new information with better efficiency.

6. Types of E-learning • Synchronous • Asynchronous

7. Synchronous Learning • Synchronous, means “at the same time,” • Synchronous e-learning takes place in real-time with a group of learners. However, not necessarily located in one place. • Collaborative and feedback-friendly • Examples- Live webinars, audio and video conferencing, virtual classrooms, instant messaging

8. Asynchronous Learning • Asynchronous, means “not at the same time” • Asynchronous e-learning makes it possible for learners to access the e-learning content through the e-learning environment at any time • Cost effective and time-independent • Examples-Self paced online courses, discussion forums and groups, blogs, emails. CDs and DVDs

9. When to use Synchronous e-learning? • Use synchronous e-learning for the following – • Instructor based online training • Concept-based training • Doubt clearing sessions • Soft-skill training • Teaching foreign languages.

10. When to use Asynchronous e-learning? • Use asynchronous e-learning for the following- • Generic business topics like management training, financial training, etc. • Projects with simulations like industrial control simulations, flight simulators, etc. • Long shelf-life training • Static training material • Process based training where learner gets pre-recorded study material that he studies in his own time

12. E-learning Delivery Platforms E-learning can be delivered through a Learning Management System (LMS) or a Learning Content management System (LCMS)

13. Benefits of E-learning for Businesses • Wider coverage • Faster Upskillment of employees • Increased productivity • Cost-effectiveness • Easy Storage • Easy Progress Tracking • Consistency • Personalization
