Abstract

Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have become one of the most important factors to the formation of society in the 21 century. Their impact is revolutionary. It affects theway of life of people, and their work and education. The new paradigm of modern education incorporates primarily the requirements for information of education as an important factor for its development. The E-learning initiative called the participants involved in education and training with an appeal to aware of the importance of new technologies in modern education and training systems and undertakes the continuous self improvement. Learning is changing as well, especially the technologies of learning. E-Education is the process of learning where computers are used at each possible step of the process: enrollment, instruction design, content delivery, evaluation, assessment and support. A number of other terms are also used to describe this mode of teaching and learning. They include online learning, virtual learning, distributed learning, networked and web-based learning. Fundamentally, they all refer to educational processes that utilize information and communication technology to mediate asynchronous as well as synchronous learning and teaching activities. On closer scrutiny, however, it will be clear that these labels refer to slightly different educational processes and as such they cannot be used synonymous with the term e-learning.
