“…78.75 % of students feel WebCT is user friendly and easy to navigate, 13.75 % of students do not care about this issue and only 8.50 % of students disagree on this point. This shows that WebCT as a virtual learning portal is successfully accepted by most of the students (Qi, et al, 2009). …”

Abstract-E-learning refers to the way people communicate and learn electronically which has only recently emerged as a key source of competitive advantage in the information society. With the development of the Information and Communication Technologies, E-Learning is argued to become a new and effective learning method and environment besides classroom based learning. Although still an emerging field, many researchers suggest that it offers many benefits that are radically different from a conventional classroom-based learning environment and can still generate result for students. It could be providing independent learning programme for internal students, external students, distant students, and training purpose. However, it is also revealed in literature that E-Learning has been used more indirectly as a tool for organising study courses and educational programmes. The questions such as "can E-Learning be made as a learning strategy" and "can E-Learning replace classroom-based modes of learning and teaching" remain unanswered. This research intends to explore various aspects with regards to how and to what extent E-Learning has been used to improve teaching and learning activities using the University of Bolton as a case study. It also intends to verify the main findings from the literature review via employing a case study approach and hence make comparisons between the national trends of ELearning usage and the chosen case. The main research findings from this study are presented in this paper.

“…He intended to build it as a simple rich desktop application based on a blended training/teaching model run on local disk, because a web-based application seemed not to be so conducive to good education but rather distractive due to the several technical and economic constraints such as connectivity, hyper texts, browser capabilities and high maintenance costs [3]. The requirements have grown rapidly in the course of the evolution toward teaching tools, as shown in Table 2.…”

“…Some of them have been opened freely on the net, such as MIT's OCW, and enabled to be accessed worldwide. We can find several comprehensive literature reviews on the current use of computers for education [3]. In this paper, by contrast, the author will try to give a specific review of the status of CBT through his concrete learning and teaching experiences, which consist of his preparation for the IEEE Certified Software Development Professional (CSDP) exam, collegiate instruction of programming languages and teaching of ICT at high schools.…”

This paper presents a brief chronological review of computer-based training (CBT) and the author's experimental implementation of CBT application software through his learning and teaching experiences, which consist of his preparation for the IEEE Certified Software Development Professional (CSDP) exam, collegiate instruction of programming languages and teaching of information and communication technology (ICT) at high schools. This paper also discusses the data structure and features of CBT as a lifelong educational system for the future.

“…Within recent years, many higher education institutes have employed e-technology in their academic work (Siritongthaworn & Krairit, 2006;Bose, 2003;Alexander, 2001;Hadengue, 2005). The most popular e-learning technologies include (Qi, et al, 2009) WebCT, Blackboard and Moodle, etc. The e-methods, such as email, instant chatting, etc., commonly contained by them are the focused elements of this article.…”

For supporting the effectiveness and efficiency of the students' learning and the educators' teaching, as a favored approach in recent years, e-learning technology has been widely used in the academic institutes. However, with regarding to the students community, how much they use the e-learning technology, what types of e-learning methods are being mainly used by the students, as well as the barriers for enjoying the advantages of e-technology, remain interesting topics for the educators to explore. This article, by focusing on these issues, through an investigation among the students within a higher education institute, presents an understanding regarding the usage of e-learning methods, and the factors hindering the efficacy of their usage among the students, as well as a primary analysis on the usage difference between undergraduate and postgraduate students.
