E-learning is designed to teach learners through self-paced, experiential learning based on adult learning principles. It is not simply classroom materials like presentations, notes or recordings converted to a digital format. E-learning uses instructional design models like ADDIE to facilitate learning through interactive online content and assessments to both reinforce learning and evaluate achievement of objectives. It is not virtual instructor-led training, but rather self-directed study meant to problem solve and apply knowledge to real work contexts through formative and summative assessments throughout and at the end of a course.

What Is and What Is Not E-learning
1. What is E-LEARNING & What is NOT ?
Confused between what eLearning
actually is and what it is not?
Not able to implement eLearning
because of the confusion?
Keep sliding to know what eLearning
actually is.
8. ▪ To teach learners instead of inform
▪ To facilitate self-paced learning
▪ To reinforce learning
▪ To measure and assess learning
eLearning Has Performance-based
Learning Objectives
9. eLearning is designed according to
adult learning principles – that adults
learn best when:
▪ The learning is:
• Self-directed
• Experiential and uses prior knowledge
• Relevant to the learners’ current roles.
• Problem-centered
▪ They are motivated to learn
eLearning is Based on the 5 Adult
Learning Principles
10. ADDIE, a 5 step ID model includes Analysis,
Design, Development, Implementation, &
Evaluation.
SAM (Successive Approximation Model) is
an iterative process that uses short and
agile steps for the design and development
of eLearning.
eLearning is Based on Instructional
Design Models
11. Formative assessments:
▪ Appear throughout the
course after every
unit/topic
▪ Are diagnostic
in nature
▪ Reinforce learning
Summative assessments:
▪ Occur at the end of the course
▪ Are evaluative in nature
▪ Measure the achievement of
the set learning objectives
eLearning Includes Formative and
Summative Assessments
