Abstract. The privacy of e-learning systems has become a big concern. This paper proposes a new approach, which can effectively protect the privacy of e-learning users. We propose to use the alias and anonymity to implement the privacy preservation for e-learning systems. Through the approach, a unique alias represents the real e-learning user to communicate with each other or e-learning users use the anonymity to hide their information. This approach can be very simple and efficient to be implemented in the e-learning system by well designed meta-formats of digital identities of four types of e-learning users. The anonymity can be adopted by all e-learning users to keep their privacy. IntroductionE-learning is defined as technology-based learning in which learning materials are delivered electronically to remote learners via a computer network [1], particularly the Internet. Based on [1], comparing to traditional classroom learning, the advantages of e-learning are learner-entered and self-paced, time and location flexibility, cost-effective for learners, potentially available to global audience, unlimited access to knowledge, and archival capability for knowledge reuse and sharing. The disadvantages are lack of immediate feedback in asynchronous e-learning, increased preparation time for the instructor, not comfortable to some people, and potentially more frustration, anxiety, and confusion. With the development of new technology, all the disadvantages could be overcome, like lack of immediate feedback will be solved by the adoption of wireless technology in e-learning. When a student needs an immediate feedback, his/her question will be sent to the instructor by a special wireless device and the instructor can reply the student's question immediately via the wireless device. It is obvious that e-learning will become a very important educational means for the learners. With more and more learners are acquiring their knowledge via e-learning systems which are usually connected by the Internet. When the Internet is mentioned, a natural question arises here, can we trust the Internet? In other word, do

More and more learners tend to utilise e-learning as their learning platform. The privacy of the users' digital identities of e-learning has become a big concern. This paper proposes a new approach, which can effectively protect the privacy of e-learning users' digital identity. Through the approach, a unique alias represents the real e-learning user to communicate with each other. This approach can be very simple and efficient to be implemented in the e-learning system by well designed meta-formats of digital identities of four types of e-learning users.
