eLearning

In this section shares details of elearning modules that are available within the area of healthy weight.
If you would like us to include an elearning module, please contact us.

A working definition of elearning, adapted from the JISC, is: ‘Learning facilitated and supported through
the use of information and communications technology (ICT)’.

eLearning includes:

  • delivery of courses;
  • on-line assessment;
  • student to student and student to teacher communications;
  • use of Internet resources;
  • and other learning activities involving ICT and the Internet.

 

eLearning can thus be thought of as a continuum, encompassing a broad range of activities across a spectrum 

  • from using elearning for 'smarter' learner support,

  • through blended learning (the majority of activity),

  • to learning that is delivered entirely online.
