6 Definition elearning Any learning that utilizes a network (LAN, WAN or Internet) for delivery, interaction, or facilitation. This would include distributed learning, distance learning (other than pure correspondence), CBT delivered over a network, and WBT. Can be synchronous, asynchronous, instructor-led or computer-based or a combination. elearning Platform network based software system for administration, authoring, tutoring and delivery of content to the learner

7 Einordnung Learning Distance learning Classroom learning Correspondenc e learning Distributed learning Asynchronous learning Synchronous learning CBT ILT CD CBT Network CBT e-learning & WBT

8 Advantages of elearning with platforms easy delivery of training to users instant multi-platform capabilities easy updating of content shift from costly programming to interface and content design quicker turnaround of finished product requires less technical support billing options by user ID, number of accesses, date/time of access

9 Disadvantages, if client is webbrowser limited formatting of content in current browsers bandwidth/browser limitations may restrict instructional methodologies limited bandwidth means slower performance for sound, video, and intense graphics qualified personal required to provide server access, control usage, bill users

11 Size of the Market Corporate e-learning is one of the fastest growing markets in the education industry The online training market is expected to nearly double in size every year through 2003, reaching approximately $11 billion by that time Online IT training - a $0.87 billion industry, outsized the market for soft skills training fourfold the soft skills training market is growing twice as fast as the IT training market and should surpass it by 2003.

12 Market trends Market share and growth rates vary widely among the three major e-learning market segments: Content, Technology, and Services. Content - 66% market share largest segment, annual rate of 74%. Services - the fastest growing segment, surging ahead at a CAGR of 111%. Branding - the key strategy element e-learning. Low market transparency, limited knowledge of e-learning products serious challenges for corporate customers companies will prefer the safe choice and retain e- learning providers with established brand names.

13 Costumer priorities Customer priorities shift away from stand-alone training courses. Corporations demand a one-stop-shopping approach to meet their training needs, leading to convergence within the e-training industry. Value-added services as needs assessment and custom curriculum design, online mentoring, performance support, reporting and tracking, and hosting are expected to fuel market growth in the next several years.

14 Technological barriers Technological barriers are diminishing: lack of interactivity content availability technology standards bandwidth, are being addressed adoption of broadband should facilitate higher use rates of media-rich e-learning products.

15 Competition strategy To secure sizable market share, competitors need to play on all three major fronts Content, Technology, and Services and to deliver an integrated, complete e-learning solution. Such a strategy implies entering strong partnerships or acquiring complementary content, technology, and know-how.

23 User case model I structure of elearning - Platforms Client represents role of an abstract user of IBELS generalization of all IBELS users associated with two use cases: Logon/Registration and Asynchronous session. Learner represents role of IBELS learner inherited from Client. In addition to inherited associations is also associated with use-case Synchronous session - all learners of IBELS can use IBELS in synchronous and asynchronous mode.

24 User Case model II Business actor Trainer is inherited from Client and represents role of IBELS trainer or instructor has association with use cases Synchronous session and Testing management. All instructors of IBELS also can use as synchronous as asynchronous mode. Business actor Author inherited from Trainer and represents role of IBELS author or developer inherits all associations from Trainer, but in addition is associated with use cases Content development and Content management.

25 User Case model III Business worker Administrator represents role of IBELS administrator or manager is inherited from Client and has additional associations with use cases Content management and System management

26 Use cases I Logon/Registration represents set of procedures responsible for logon and registration into the system Asynchronous session represents IBELS session in asynchronous mode and associated with use case Logon/Registration, generalizes following use cases: Content browsing, Using Mail/News, Workspace sharing, Testing (subsystem, which provides tests, examinations and tele-exercises)

27 Use cases II Synchronous session represents IBELS session in synchronous mode and associated with use case Logon/Registration too, also generalized following use cases: ILT session (support of remote Instructor-led training session), Audio/Video conference, Chat (text based synchronous interaction), Shared blackboard, Application sharing Testing management represents using of tools and utilities for management of testing subsystem

28 Use Cases III Content development represents using of content editors and wizards Content management represents using of management utilities for content System management represents management of system profiles, system configuration and other system related data. This use case also generalized following use cases: User/Account managemen, File/Database management (management of file servers and database servers), Network management ( management network access to the IBELS)
