Outline • Blended Learning • Assessment • Blogging • Podcasting • Vodcasting • Future learning paradigms
Goal • To graduate qualified people who can • serve Egypt, • help building a knowledge society and • compete in the World Market
Objective Utilize technology to enhance • student learning, • student achievement and • intellectual growth
Outline • Introduction • Initial Assumptions • Introduction to MM based e-Learning • Requirements of e-Learning • Learning Theories and the Learner • The Real and the Virtual • Learning Object Repositories • How to get started in eL: LCMS Decision • Role of U Professors in 2005
Assumption 1 • Traditional Teaching is a must in undergraduate studies of practical disciplines • Hands on Experience is crucial
Assumption 2 • Blended Learning “F2F” + e-Learning”
