E-Learning
is a learning that uses computer through internet or CD-ROM and DVD, using
images, animation, audio or video. The aim of E-learning is people could reach
their achievement, even if they don not need to attend the class because
E-Learning could do everywhere. E-learning could apply in every level of
school, from elementary.
When the teacher uses
E-learning, the students could study everywhere they want, like in their house,
libraries,
Internet cafes or any other location that has Internet access. The students
could access internet like email, website and look for audio or video to
increase their knowledge because from internet they could get what they want.
Actually,
there are many online tools and applications that the teachers could use in
their E-learning, these are some online tools and applications that the teacher
and the students could use:
And
many more.
In
our life, E-learning could give us some advantages. When we have much time in a
day, and we are free, we could do E-learning along day like what we want. But
when we are busy, and we just could do E-learning for 2 or 3 hours, it never
mind, because E-learning is very flexible for us, it depends on us. We could do
E-learning everywhere and every time that we want. We could do it by using our
laptop or mobile-phone. When we are on they way to somewhere, we could use our
time for doing E-learning. So we will not waste our time. It does not look like
when we study in the class, the time is very limited, when we are in class, we
study, but after that, we could get the material what we want if we do not use
E-learning.
In
the other side, E-learning could give us some disadvantages. Like The learner
could control the students because the time is flexible. The students could
study every time they want, in the other side, the learners have to answer all
the question that students ask. In addition, if we want to do E-learning, not
all of students have the technology. For using the technology, we have to use
many application, but not all of students’ technology, like their computers or
their laptop or their gadget have the same operation system. And sometimes the
connection internet is bad, so the learners could not do E-learning well.
One
thing that we have to know, we should not replace replace conventional learning
activities in class with E-learning completely because something must have a
good side and a bad side. But we could use E-learning to improve our knowledge
and make the students think more and do more for something new.
