What is it about?

The recognition of practice in online instruction is still subject to interpretation and different approaches as a result of the rapid changes in technology and its effect on society. This research brings together different approaches and interpretations as to what e-learning should consist of and makes a synthesis with a new comprehensive rubric (check-list) divided into ten standards covering learning outcomes, providing resources, tutor-learner interaction, peer-to-peer interaction, creating a online community feel, assessment, technical issues, administrative issues and a design/review cycle.

Why is it important?

The proposed comprehensive rubric supports the development, remixing, sharing, and integration of online modules and courses by providing a single reference point with as wide a range as possible of potential pedagogical tools, facilities and approaches to e-learning.

Perspectives

As an e-learning practitioner I have always felt overwhelmed by so many ideas, perspectives, and approaches towards what is considered as 'good practice' in e-learning. I felt it was high time that a single source is made available to those who would like to experiment with e-learning or want to update/upgrade their competencies in this area.
