Links to educational resources
Hello,
This is an open forum to share your experience as an online learner and/or using technology as an effective tool for teaching and learning. All practitioners, theorists, domestic and international students, and sundry are encouraged to contribute to this forum. All of you have tons of experience to share. Join, comment, and suggest ways to integrate technology to the educational curriculum back in your home countries. Your input is most valuable to this forum. What do you think is the current situation in your home country? Is technology integration in education possible in developing economies? What are the challenges and potentials? What is the way forward?
E-learning connects people globally to educational resources, which otherwise, are unavailable or inadequate in especially, developing countries. Imagine having to share three text books among 70 students. These books can be borrowed from the library for three weeks, and renewed once in a semester by the borrower. If three borrowers decide to renew these books as required, what happens to the remaining 67 students?
Let's review some of the available educational resources to increase our understanding, scope and benefits of e-learning. Click on the links below, review and post your comments and suggestions.

Reflections: FIT Project
Generally, my expectation of a facilitator is being able to design and manage instruction in a virtual world for diverse audiences, locations, and contexts. Even though I have been involved in observing and designing instructions for virtual learners as part of the required courses for the IT program, I am looking forward to apply some of these ideas in the real context. I do hope that this course will provide the opportunity to understand the dynamics of online communication and facilitation and provide effective techniques to apply in facilitating and teaching online.
This is my journal as well as a platform for discussing global e-learning issues. I invite you and all to join in the discussion. I am already excited about the fact that we will have the opportunity to facilitate other online courses. Supported in literature, the dynamics of familiarizing with learning online have been initiated by the facilitator and learners in the “FIT” project. Hei! You can feel the tension and frustrations of the learners. But, it is just a matter of time – can’t wait to see what happens next.
See ya!
