The Patras blended strategy model for deep and meaningful learning in quality life-long distance education
2019
Life‑long learning is currently being embraced as a central process that could disrupt traditional educational paths. Apparently, the (ideal) type of learning often promoted is deep and meaningful learning, though it is not always required to be so. Deep learning goes beyond superficial knowledge assimilation of unlinked facts; it aims at developing deep disciplinary understanding, transformative knowledge, personal meaning, emotional intelligence, critical thinking, creativity and metacognitive skills. Meaningful learning occurs when learning is active, constructive, intentional, authentic, and cooperative. Technology enhanced teaching and learning methods should prove their potential to t…
E-Learning material presentation and visualization types and schemes
2014
Multimedia and content visualisation provide ability to transform electronic materials into more dynamic format. This can provide positive aspect on learning, but also can overload the limited information processing capacity in human brains. Cognitive load in technology-enhanced learning is closely related to the learning styles of learners. This study examines interactions between learning styles of students and how these are related to studentâs working memory and cognitive traits. To investigate the learning styles of learners the Felder- Soloman questionnaire was chosen. It allows analyse studentsâ learning styles with respect to the Felder-Silverman learning style model, which is t…
E-learning: Web-based education
2006
Purpose of review This review introduces state-of-the-art Web-based education and shows how the e-learning model can be applied to an anaesthesia department using Open Source solutions, as well as lifelong learning programs, which is happening in several European research projects. Recent findings The definition of the term e-learning is still a work in progress due to the fact that technologies are evolving every day and it is difficult to improve teaching methodologies or to adapt traditional methods to a new or already existing educational model. The European Community is funding several research projects to define the new common market place for tomorrow's educational system; this is le…
Blogging as a research and educational tool: a three years experience
2008
Abstract Blogging can be also used to share knowledge in research and education. We have been using many blogs with the following purposes. One goal has been to raise awareness about research methods in the information technology field by supporting information exchange, collaboration, and cooperation between researchers. We have been using a common blog for 3 years to share inter- and intra disciplinary knowledge among us. We have also collected stories and interviewed colleagues and friends. An other goal is the use of blogs during our teaching experience as an instrument to support the exchange of knowledge with students. A comparison of the use of blogging is presented with positive and…

E-Learning in Pharmacology and Pharmacy
2011
Computer-based learning facilitates a shift from externally controlled to self-directed learning. Universities and other educational institutions are challenged by these developments and must react appropriately to meet the requirements of education. The term e-learning has been coined to describe a wide range of diverse learning and teaching strategies based on the use of electronic devices. Recently developed concepts in the science of education and learning provide appropriate frameworks for novel e-learning scenarios. The present review introduces strategies and concepts for the implementation of e-learning in academic and non-academic programs and gives an overview of current e-learnin…
E-Learning Experiences in La Ribera Health Department
2014
This paper shows how the training of health professionals is improving thanks to the use of new technologies, in particular e-learning. This type of technology is widely used in medical education and there are multiple research works that report its effective deployment by health professionals and students. However, there is a need to incorporate e-learning platforms and online methods in healthcare organizations through a systematic and rigorous approach what is proposed in the current work. This approach has been applied since 2009 in the context of La Ribera Health Department implementing a high number of e-learning experiences. The obtained outcomes reveal how useful have been these exp…
Formation et médiation en r(é)volution numérique : enjeux communicationnels de l'intégration du digital learning dans les centres de contact

This work of thesis aims to accompany the trainers of the contact centers on the processes, the conditions of success and the stakes of the integration of the e-learning. By analyzing in what ways new training practices, notably via online platforms, generalized digitization have…
Dall'asincrono al sincrono: buone pratiche per l'apprendimento on-line
2009
La diffusione degli ambienti di blended elearning nei corsi universitari è sempre maggiore Sorge la necessità di individuare delle pratiche che possono consentire il raggiungimento di adeguate competenze anche tramite una interazione più assidua e diretta tra studenti e docenti/tutor. Si è ritenuto di esaminare più in dettaglio i risultati di apprendimento e l’acquisizione di competenze analizzando percorsi sostenuti da interazioni ( a distanza) solo asincrone e percorsi sostenuti da interazioni (a distanza) sincrone. La ricerca ha messo a fuoco le caratteristiche della comunicazione asincrona, in ambiente blended e-learning, più significative ai fini degli obiettivi di apprendimento; quind…
Comprehensive E-Learning Appraisal System
2019
The healthcare sector in the XXI century presents a big technological development that covers a broad knowledge. All fields of medicine are deepening their knowledge, which increases the volume of material that must be handled by professionals in each specialty. This large volume of material should be taken into account by health professionals, because it contributes to a better quality of care. The traditional way of teaching has been face-to-face classes; however, with rising technologies, virtual training via computers and virtual teachers are being implemented in some institutions. This change in the way of teaching also leads to changes in how to assess the knowledge gained through thi…
