White paper
Content and context in e-learning
Context is king
Content always has a context. And context can do everything to
enhance - or to diminish - the knowledge it carries.
E-learning content is a medium like any other, like TV, books or
film. We don't write off the movies per se just because we regularly
get subjected to turkeys. Similarly we shouldn't write off e-learning
every time we see an example of poor e-learning content. There is
a regretably widespread tendency in education and training to make
generalisations about e-learning content that fail to take into
account its true diversity, range, and in many cases richness.
In his latest new white paper from Epic, Donald Clark,
CEO of Epic Group plc, addresses the subject of e-learning content
(long a core field of excellence for Epic). He offers a taxonomy
of e-learning content, describes how it functions within optimal
blends of learning methods… and describes the fascinating new
trend on the web to make more and more of the world's learning content
freely available online.
