- Course objectives
- The course will introduce students to the theoretical approaches to and various perspectives on e-learning. The content will also include the study of strategic documents of school policy at national and European level. Examples of important topics that will be discussed include the following: What are the ways to explore e-learning, what research has already been carried out, what results has it produced, where can empirical data on e-learning be in general sought? The next part of the course focuses on practical applications of e-learning in different types of schools as well as within the framework of lifelong learning. The course will use Moodle on-line learning environment to support learning. Hence, students will be able to try out one of the e-learning options directly in real instruction. The course includes theoretical objectives (students become acquainted with the theoretical framework of the topic) and methodological objectives (students will know not only the research but also its methodology), but also practical goals (students will try out one of online learning systems).
