Abstract:

The focus of much e-learning activity is upon the development of courses and their resources. Successful e-learning takes place within a complex system involving the student experience of learning, teachers' strategies, teachers' planning and thinking, and the teaching/learning context. Staff development for e-learning focuses around the level of technological delivery strategies when other issues such as the teachers' conception of learning has a major influence on the planning of courses, development of teaching strategies and what students learn. This article proposes a more comprehensive framework for the design, development and implementation of e-learning systems in higher education.
