Whether face-to-face instruction in school or corporate learning environments the onus is on the teacher or trainer or devise scenarios that compel learners to apply knowledge, skills and behaviors to not only resolve problems through practice but form a core of habits that will be internalized and applied.
In elearning the onus is on the instructional designer to do the same.
So what are you saying Abihijit? IDs are suspect because the nature of elearning will not–or hasn’t–encouraged quality instruction because both the media and its designers are out of alignment and inept especially compared to good teachers? And specifically when drawing information into true learning by example and practice?
Any educator knows learning is resonant only when its put to use. I daresay corporate learners with extrinsic rewards and penalties are probably more focused than students but that is not always the case.
I believe the quality of teachers and their preparation–in general–continues to be weak, behind the curve and littered with less that the top rank of collegians. And I know–I’ve taught them and counseled them out. No, there’s better education on the elearning front when designed and built well–it’s consistent since it sidesteps poor teaching and ists economical in delivery and more importantly shape-shifts to keep the learning contemporary.
I’m not sure what your article, which is terribly obvious, really means beyond introducing a topic to the nascent educators out there but I do believe it is misleading.
