In Brussels, hands wearing surgical gloves make precise and skilful incisions into an abdomen. In Senegal, attentive participants of the “Demonstrations of Telemedicine” pre-conference workshop at eLearning Africa watch simultaneously on a big screen: The transnational videosurgery, carried out by Professor Guy-Bernard Cadière in Brussels for Senegalese medical students, was a great start to three days packed with topics concerning healthcare. The variety on offer – video conferencing on surgical matters, serious gaming for “Combating Yellow Fever“, malaria documentation, HIV treatment and much more – showed the level of quality, as well as the urgency, of innovative medical workforce training. On the African continent, where about one million physicians, nurses and midwives are lacking and basic medical services cannot be guaranteed, eLearning is seen as an indispensable means to develop human resources. At eLearning Africa, experts from all over Africa and abroad had the chance to learn more about new learning technologies and systems, technical requirements, sustainable content development and implementation strategies.
Health-related topics were one of the most prominent strands of this year’s eLearning Africa conference and sessions were every well attended. However, whilst elaborate telemedicine and telementoring projects gave an impressive overview of how to combine cutting-edge technology with medical expertise, many presentations addressed a more basic challenge. “How to apply medical knowledge to do high-tech science in low-tech environments” was the key issue discussed by deputies from government, universities, and leading healthcare and aid organisations such as AMREF; USAID; GDLN; Université de Lomé, Togo; the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare, Tanzania; Agence de Médecine Préventive (AMP); and IICD. Also, a particularly large number of experts from eLearning Africa’s host country, Senegal, were present.
How to manage large-scale implementations
There is an obvious lack of much-needed medical experts in most African countries. The continent, with 13.8 percent of the world’s population, is faced with the burden of 25 percent of the world’s diseases but accounts for only 1.3 percent of world’s health workforce (source: WHO). In addition to the crippling problem of HIV and malaria, the number of cardiovascular diseases is on the rise in Africa as a result of malnourishment, and like in developed nations as a result of a fat and sugar-laden diet. As there are many African governments in the process of implementing health-care reforms, the demand for cost-effective methods of knowledge-exchange and large-scale training projects is high. At eLearning Africa, several eHealth and eLearning solutions were explored and presented regarding flexibility, accessibility and portability. Tracking and evaluation were also topics of interest.
Caroline Mbindyo, who manages AMREF’s eLearning programme, for example, presented a paper in Dakar based on AMREF’s experiences on “ Implementing a Large Scale eLearning Programme – A Kenyan Experience” to help institutions that are considering introducing similar programmes in Africa. As most implementation guides have been tailored to the developed world, AMREF aimed to share lessons learned and identify critical success factors from implementing an eLearning programme in an authentic African setting. The outcome was a decisive implementation guide drawn from projects in Kenya and from replication studies in Uganda, Ethiopia and South Africa, which was in great demand by partner institutions, as a conference report from Tanzania shows.
“Keep it simple” works best
Many current trends in eHealth and eLearning for health could be observed at the conference. The variety of devices shown ranged from video conference facilities to social technologies to CD-ROM, DVD, VCD, not to mention printed documents and teaching by telephone. Wireless connectivity and mobile devices were seen as important new tools for managing patient care, electronic records and medical billing in telemedicine settings.
Despite the many high-end solutions, however, there is truth in the “keep it simple” maxim. Dr Daniel Tumaini Kisimbo from the Tanzanian Ministry of Health and Social Welfare, for example, addressed the problem of computer and internet coverage, particularly in rural areas and at sub-district levels. Although low-end video conferencing technologies are being piloted in some places such as Zanzibar, print-based distance learning is ranked as more effective and more popular in Tanzania. Thus, he advocated encouraging the use of simple technologies such as CD-ROMs, DVDs or audio tapes. However, the presenter also saw a bright future for high-end video conferencing technologies such as Digital Video conferencing, as fibre-optic cables are now being installed in countries such as Tanzania.
Célestin Compaoré, SOS/Jeunesse et Défis Burkina Faso, introduced a comprehensive virtual data bank he wants to build to track malaria. It is the first project of this kind in his country – accessible for all people concerned with the disease, including journalists. A successful large-scale blended learning programme, aimed at training those responsible for vaccination, was presented by Prof Joseph Aka, Université de Cocody Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire.
Additionally, sustainable and cost-effective content creation and the use of Open Source tools received much attention. Here, a highly developed eLearning facility for Health Professionals training in Tanzania was presented by the German development institution InWEnt together with the Austrian eLearning supplier common sense eLearning & training consultants GmbH and the Tanzania Training Centre for Orthopaedic Technologists (TATCOT).
“Health is a predominant issue in Africa's eLearning arena: It is absolutely essential for the Continent as it helps to solve educational challenges, such as the education of thousands of healthcare workers and the provision of better healthcare for millions of people. Progress made in important fields, such as antenatal care, shows how important these learning opportunities are. For these reasons, we will maintain and increase health expertise in the eLearning Africa programme," says eLearning Africa initiator and organiser, Rebecca Stromeyer.

M Learning
The concept of m-Learning has been well established. But are we really prepared for the outburst that it can create? We are really at the fringe and there is much more beyond creation of beneficial content. Let us explore the immense new possibilities this can open up.
Mobile Culture
A new culture has been in formation ever since the mobile device was introduced. The device itself has been upgraded continuously and from an ordinary communicator has become something unrecognizable form its humble origins. This has thrown up new usages and new ways of action and thought.
Let us first look at the user. Imagine the old student in the public lab hooding over his/her desktop browsing away for information and piecing together information and collaborating with class over content. In today’s environment the same student is now carrying a mobile device on which content is streamed at intervals and he is able to immediately Google across to find a particular meaning or context to continue his quest. The best part is he is neither bound to his desktop nor to his class. His area of operation has widened considerably and he is no longer restricted by such mundane elements as time and space. He may well sit in the cafeteria and, across coffee and bagel, attend his class. This m-learning may well be directed at a small group or at a larger class, all dispersed over space and still engage in a common project. He may well be straddling across and still glued to his mobile is in sync.
This is truly the return of the nomad. With data streaming in wherever the recipient is he is able to research his area of interest on the World Wide Web spread across space. Research is now on the fly in motion. When the effort is collaborative the team is in all probability working in different spaces.
M-Learning
With bio-Wap facilities data now flows with the aid of the camera and video streaming of content adds richness and offers new depths of understanding. Imagine looking at a plant, sending its picture over to others and getting information
Where is the pedagogical connection in this cyberculture? If we are able to harness this then we would have truly raised the level of m-learning and it will be as useful as other learning methodologies.
A new Information Literacy is on the horizon. Social softwares like Meetup have been introduced and have created a swarming attitude. If this swarming can be extended to learning then a giant stride would have been made. The big question is the instructor also ready to join this swarm? This can play the role of a building block? Can the institutions use this opportunity and build upon it in a structured way?
The Future of m-Learning
There is an explosion in information and it is beyond the boundary of Places. It is available everywhere. Interactive web is creating new thresholds by the hour. Questions are now posed and posted literally at others’ doors and answers come from most unexpected quarters. Collaborators become groups and they turn into swarms. There is a contributory mood in the swarm.
There is a new philosophy in the offing. The human layer of the earth has now become a vast downloadable, searchable, writable surface. This is augmented reality in practice. With new mobile usability and capabilities the physical world is moving into digital spaces for first hand learning. The nomadic swarms are already invading the campus and the time has come for the teachers and the institutions to rise up to the occasion and change the face of pedagogy.

E-learning in India
About E-Learning :
E-learning or electronic learning in India is gaining prominence slowly, but indeed steadily. This is due to the fact that more than half the population of India today is below 25 years of age and the number of Internet users are growing continuously. The tremendous growth of the economy in the recent past has also helped in the growth of online education in India. E-learning in India is specially popular with the young professionals who have joined the work force quite early but still would like to continue their education that may help them move up their career ladder quickly and safely. They find
online education
in India very convenient, as the nature of the course work does not require them to attend regular classes. Moreover reputed institutes like Indian Institute of Management, Indian Institute of Technology, Indian Institute of Foreign Trade are today offering e-learning courses.
Thus e-learning in India makes it possible for the learners to pursue their education from reputed institutes without much hassle.
Online Education Scope in India
:
The scope of online education in India is actually much wider.
Apart from proper course works, some E-learning portals in India are also conducting mock tests for various competitive examinations like engineering, medical, management etc. For example, the Indiatimes group has introduced the Mindscape test center where one can appear for mock
IIT-JEE exams
online for making self-assessment.
The Gurukul online Solutions, apart from providing various courses, set up a Jobs and Careers Centre (JCC), which, not only provides job-oriented vocational education in a variety of domains, but also provides career enriching courses via eLearning. They also offer Live Virtual Classroom connectivity to over 175 cities across India. Some E-learning portals in India are also providing tutorials for school students. Thus the reach of E-learning in India has expanded from adults to teenagers.The future of E-learning industry seems to be very bright in India as number of Internet users is growing in the country
at quite a satisfactory pace and more and more reputed players are showing their interest in the e-learning business. In fact, if prices of computers become affordable and Internet speed becomes tolerable, e- learning can work wonders for the country. Therefore, on this page, we would be providing information about all the online courses in India and the key players that are providing e-learning solutions in India.

E Learning Trends
The E-Learning Industry
With the cost of implementing e-learning tools falling, more governments, businesses, and schools have added online courses and other forms of distance learning to their organizations. By keeping an eye on the top trends in e-learning, meeting some of the most influential experts in the e-learning field, and asking critical questions about your own strategy, you can make important decisions about how you use e-learning tools in your own life and at your own organization.
Top Ten Trends in E-Learning
Based on research from the Gartner Group, the University of Pennsylvania, and other prestigious think tanks, we can identify ten vital trends that will influence the growth of e-learning over the next ten years.
1. Application Service Providers offer more quick start options. Governments, companies, and learning institutions that don't want to reinvent the wheel can lease or purchase turnkey e-learning systems. As e-learning processes become more standardized, clients benefit from shared research and development expenses, lower costs, and fast deployment. Even organizations on low budgets can implement open source e-learning platforms like Moodle on third party servers in a matter of hours.
* IBM E-Learning Systems
* KnowledgeAnywhere Corporate Solutions
* Moodle Hosting Providers
* Overview of E-Learning and Course Management Software
2. Companies integrate e-learning into their infrastructure. As more organizations deploy departmental or company-wide intranets to increase communication and productivity, savvy managers use the same tools to release e-learning programs into the wild. Professional development directors can easily integrate learning modules into staff communications, while human resources directors can add similar tools to web-based benefits and payroll systems. Not only does this emphasis on learning encourage workers to participate in more training, the modular nature of e-learning content allows employees to learn at their desks in smaller chunks.
* Innovative E-Learning Deployment
* E-Learning via Podcasting
* Self-Service Professional Development
3. Churning skill sets require e-learning initiatives. With job descriptions and daily tasks evolving faster than schools can produce qualified job candidates, many employers rely on constant, on-the-job training to remain competitive. E-learning programs help companies push new skills and critical improvements to line-level staff members quickly and efficiently, without the lag time of classroom or retreat-based training.
* Workflow Learning Gets Real
* Rapid E-Learning
4. E-Learning cuts the cost of high quality content. Ivy League institutions like the University of Pennsylvania once traded on their exclusivity to justify the high cost of enrollment. Today, even the Wharton School of Business understands the value of repurposing classroom content for distance learners around the country. By developing classrooms without walls, e-learning programs can reduce the costs of participation without negatively affecting the compensation for renowned lecturers, researchers, and presenters.
* Staffing and compensation issues at one e-learning university.
* Abandoning cookie-cutter courses.
5. E-Learning levels professional playing field around the world. Workers in niche industries once had to travel to specialized learning centers to discover the best practices in their field. Today, e-learning connects students in rural communities to urban experts, and vice versa. We are only starting to see the effects that quality education is having on business and industry in developing countries. Likewise, small businesses can access the same caliber of high-level information and insight that was once only available to Fortune 500 companies with large human resources budgets.
* Empowering Employees Through Training
* Supporting Learning in Small Business (.pdf)
6. Gamers bring interactive skills to e-learning. Human beings love to learn through experience. Many e-learning providers have discovered that they can use video game technology to develop fun, engaging, effective simulations. Industrial employers can train workers to handle sophisticated tasks without risking injury or production quality. Other types of teams can grow skills and learn best practices by participating in simulated quiz shows or treasure hunts. Fun e-learning programs help boost staff morale while reducing the time it takes for team members to integrate new skills and ideas.
* Better Training Through Gaming
* A Little Fun Goes a Long Way
7. Governments deploy e-learning at all levels. In addition to the obvious business uses for e-learning, governments around the world have discovered that e-learning programs can dramatically improve the quality of life for citizens while reducing the financial burden on taxpayers. Local schools in underserved rural areas or dangerous urban neighborhoods can rely on e-learning to offset the lack of skilled teachers in their districts. State university systems can keep talented students from crossing borders by importing highly specialized programs from other schools. Governments in developing countries have invested heavily in e-learning programs to build eager, talented, work forces.
* Government Departments Embrace E-Learning Systems
8. Partners and collaborators use e-learning to get everyone on the same page sooner. As conglomerates unbundle themselves into smaller, more tightly focused companies, the connections between these operating units determine the success or failure of projects and products. Strong e-learning systems allow team members at collaborating companies to understand shared objectives. Workers can quickly learn about the inner workings of technologies and techniques. As a result, outsourced call centers and repair facilities can serve customers transparently, while parts manufacturers can respond to end user demand with dramatic turnaround time.
* Adapt or die.
* E-Learning Return on Investment
9. Wireless technology helps e-learning initiatives "cut the cord." Until distance learning programs brought specialized skills and best practices to far-flung corners of the world, professionals often had to travel to urban centers to benefit from innovative research. Today's wireless technology allows educators and development specialists to reach even further into rural areas, farms, deserts, and rainforests. With radio, satellite, and Wi-Fi signals beaming two-way information from distant locales, people can participate in an almost endless array of learning opportunities.
* Wireless E-Learning Teaches Hygiene to Refugees
10. E-Learning's Movers and Shakers. Brian Alger wrote "The Experience Designer," one of the first comprehensive guides to modern e-learning, in 2002. Alger explores the connections between the way we learn through storytelling and experience and the kinds of technologies we can use to emulate the learning process online. To keep readers and colleagues up to date on current developments in e-learning research, Alger posts new findings and links to his Experience Designer Network weblog.
Amy Jo Kim has spent more than two decades of her career studying effective online community design. As the founder of her creative studio, NAIMA, Dr. Kim has collaborated on many of the e-learning industry's groundbreaking products and platforms. In addition to lecturing at e-learning conferences around the world, she continues to develop innovative new community systems for clients in the public and private sectors. Dr. Kim comments on her work and her industry on her weblog.
Kevin Kruse wrote a number of successful books about professional development and training in the 1990's before establishing himself as an expert in e-learning. After building and selling his own e-learning company during the dot-com boom, Kruse toured the country as a featured speaker and highly sought-after e-learning consultant. He chronicles the e-learning industry on his website, E-LearningGuru.com.
