Conducting webinars (live online classes) and communicating with professors via chat and message forums is also an option available to users. The term “e-learning” has only been in existence since 1999, when the word was first utilized at a CBT systems seminar. Other words also began to spring up in search of an accurate description such as “online learning” and “virtual learning”. However, the principles behind e-learning have been 698 Mool Raj- Open Web Based e-Learning well documented throughout history, and there is even evidence which suggests that early forms of e-learning existed as far back as the 19th century.

  • How to Prevent “Mush Brain”
    How to Prevent “Mush Brain” How can we prevent “mush brain”? Doctors and family members recommend puzzles and word games; there are plenty of ‘Apps’ out there that can be downloaded to your computer or phone in an effort to keep your mind working. Did you ever think about going back to school learning about something online? As we get older we become set in our ways and more sedentary. We gravitate to easy, comfortable grooves in our daily life. This also tends to lead us to loneliness and isolation. The result is a decline in both social interaction as well as decreased mental stimulation. These are two of three components essential to brain health (physical exercise, cognitive exercise and social engagement). This cognitive decline significantly increases the risk of dementia. Senior education programs can provide a way to fight social isolation by bringing seniors into respectful interaction with all sorts of interesting people, whether it is online or in a classroom. The sheer act of going back to school can invigorate a life by coming together with like-minded others. Taking a class in just about any subject can improve cognitive abilities, rejuvenate memory while having fun. Challenging the brain to grow new cells can take place at any age. In the interest of continuing education, many colleges and universities offer reduced or free college tuition to senior citizens (typically 60 and up, although rules vary). Based on information on Pennyhoarder.com, at least one option for reduced or free tuition is available in every state. However, if one does pay tuition for continuing education, there is a tax break called the Lifetime Learning Credit; this allows up to a $2,000 maximum deduction, but phases out for higher earners (currently $56,000 for singles and $112,000 if filing jointly).

Reading the classics is the easiest way to improve your writing. While reading you unconsciously absorb the grammar and style of the 100 Words to Know 4 author. Why not learn from the best? After reading, I’ve observed that my thoughts begin to mirror the writer’s style. This influence carries over to writing, helping form clear, rhythmic sentences. Improved Speaking Ability. Becoming a better speaker accompanies becoming a better writer because both are caused by becoming a better thinker. Studying works of genius will teach you to express yourself with clarity and style. By College Match Maker improving your command of the English language, you’ll become more persuasive, sound more intelligent, and enjoy an advantage over less articulate people. Fresh Ideas.

Email: [email protected], [email protected] Received June 29th, 2011; revised July 18th, 2011; accepted July 22nd, 2011. There are three serious problems facing education today. These include working with draconian budgets that mean reduced spending for education, making education interesting and relevant for students, and raising stan- dards. Several issues that the legislators are especially concerned about are the low retention rates at the college level, the high dropout rates in the high schools, and the long time it takes undergraduate students to graduate college. The authors show how online learning may be an important tool for solving these problems.
