This article is about the latest trends in e-learning.
Yet, some years ago, not many people have heard of the
term “e-learning”. A lot of people have heard of terms
such as distance education or distance learning, yet
with the introduction of e-learning, distance education
took on a whole new meaning. With e-learning, the
possibilities for getting knowledge and information out
to the learner at her/his own pace opened a whole new
world for knowledge transfer. In recent years
terminology changed and it went from using such terms as
“technology-supported learning, distance learning and
distance education” to “online learning and web-based
training” to “e-learning”. Today, e-learning allows us
to share and manage knowledge and skills of the
professionals who work in our colleges and universities,
and to get the right information to the right people,
when and how they need it. pdf
