<p><strong>Presentation Transcript</strong></p>
<p><strong>Elearning has not changed</strong></p>
<ul>
<li> elearning or “<a id="aptureLink_VTIG1UnWs6" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic%20learning">electronic learning</a>” is very broadly classified as a learning imparted using some electronic media .</li>
<li> Basic delivery methodology has not changed.</li>
</ul>
<ol>
<li>Content has moved from <a id="aptureLink_AuKPoffZeg" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web-based%20training">WBT</a> (CDs) to Web</li>
<li> More <a id="aptureLink_60vcib0XSs" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning%20management%20system">LMS</a> functionalities developed</li>
<li>Some development in reporting and assessment has been made</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>3. Why eLearning is not so effective</strong></p>
<ul>
<li> Human being learn when we want to learn for whatever motivation there is for learning. eLearning will fail when it is pushed</li>
<li> Difficult to assess and report</li>
<li> Emotionless</li>
<li> Not action oriented</li>
<li> Generally a lot of theory and boring</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>4. New eLearning</strong></p>
<ul>
<li> <a id="aptureLink_JYbFe2bCeL" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3WLJq5BucM">Immersive learning</a>: using technology that would use visual, tactile, auditory, olfactory, and gustatory stimuli</li>
<li> <a id="aptureLink_usx90HiE82" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0874255392">On demand learning</a>: learn when I want to learn and what I want to learn (bio- technology)</li>
<li> <a id="aptureLink_MWrkYoPt4f" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augmented%20reality">Augmented reality</a> learning: creating imparting content using augmented reality and game technology (more fun)</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>5. How to Measure</strong></p>
<ul>
<li> Compare: teach the same content with both, old fashion e-learning and the new elearning techniques and assess the trained person</li>
<li> Effectiveness can be compared by knowing how the person is performing in the field after imparting the content</li>
</ul>
