  1. Virtual University :e-learning Next Generation Ayman S.A. Ghabayen Ahmed M.S. Elaklouk Collage of Science & Technology .

  2. 12 Agenda • What is Virtual University? • Why Virtual University? • Virtual University over Traditional one’s • Virtualization process . • Recommendations' .

  3. 11 What is VU ? Definitions • Distance Learning (DE) Distance Education refers to teaching and learning situations in which the instructor and the learner are geographically separated, and therefore rely on electronic devices and print materials for instructional delivery • E-Learning = Technology-based learning covers a wide set of applications and processes, including computer-based learning, Web-based learning, virtual classrooms, and cooperative learning • Online Learning = Web-based learning constitutes just one part of technology-based learning and describes learning via Internet, intranet, and extranet

  4. 10 What is VU ? Definitions cont. • Virtual University (VU) • VU is normally referred to as an online environment that models the process of education and research. Therefore, VU can be considered as a web-based DE system along with the required systems such as LMS, CMS, DigitalLibrary, and E-Commerce to provide the required services to students, faculty and staff. • Learning Management System (LMS) • (LMS) is a software application or Web-based technology used to plan, implement, and assess a specific learning process.

  6. 8 • Virtual University over the Traditional University. Why Virtual University?

  7. 7 Why Virtual University? • On-demand learning: • Instruction is available when and where the learner needs it. Eliminating the need to wait for, or travel to, and a scheduled class. • In addition, distance learning increases access to learning for the disabled. • Learner controlled: Each learner is able to review topics or to skip the information they already know. • Increased motivation: Students frequently report that they find technology-basedinteractivelearning more interesting and enjoyable than classroom lectures. • Increased achievement: When corrective feedback or a learning strategy designed to help students achieve mastery in a certain area is provided. Students often show better test results, retention, or job performance from technology-based interactive learning. • Reduced learning time: Typically 30-40 percent less time is required for learning to be achieved compared to classroom instruction (Dennis, 1994; Kearsley, 1990)

  8. 6 Why Virtual University? • Better quality control: Learning experience in Distance Learning is more consistent and reliable than classroom instruction. • Greater flexibility: Fluctuations in the number of learners, or their backgrounds, can be accommodated more easily than classroom instruction. • Improved accountability: Automatic collection of data on learner performance can verify that learning has been accomplished and identify learning problems. • Faster revision: Learning experiences are delivered via a networked system, simplifying the process of making changes and updates to the curriculum . • Reduced delivery costs: Once developed, technology-based interactive learning is likely to cost less when compared to traditional classroom instruction.

  9. 5 More benefits... • Higher retention of content through personalized learning(Intelligent Tutoring Systems). • Face-to-Face Instruction via VC. • Self-paced learning. • Improved collaboration and interactivity between students (cooperative learning). • Access to global resources and experts. • Access to media-rich learning environment.

  10. 4 Virtualization of University: cont.Some essential implementation steps and major requirements for virtual university aregiven below: “Implementing virtualization process in university cannot happen overnight, it requires lot of strategy, planning, research, manpower and infrastructure”. • Funding, Policy Issues. • VU research and Advisory Committee. • Quality Assurance System. • Administration (a variety of administrative software tools can be developed) • E-learning Applications Development • Major chunk of virtualization. • ODL will broadly come under one roof that is e-learning • Infrastructure: • Internet , Wi-Fi network ->m-learning. • Setup of satellite facility. (Edusat,Vsat) • Promoting Education Television Channel.

  11. 3 Virtualization of University:Some essential implementation steps and major requirements for virtual university aregiven below: • Partnerships. • establishes a national education consortium for joint course development. • Extended to industry experts for enabling industry driven learning. • Resources and Course Development Team. • Exploring the ICT compatible pedagogy and instructional design .(learning styles) • Training. (understanding new pedagogical framework) • Learning Management System. (deliver, track, report) • Learner Support System. (supporting, guiding )

  12. 2 In Summary • “The Net changes everything ,in the future, all education will be online.” • Virtual University with the help of e-learning standards, removes time and place barriers to support new, more effective models of future learning. • Virtual university can become a reality only if we have the required laws, infrastructure, effective learning models, and correct strategy.

  13. 1 Reconamdation: Toward PVU. Toward Building A Palestinian Virtual University • Workshops & Information Portal: Building the culture & Laws • Training: To make the transition smooth • Transforming the Courses: Multimedia Contents • Building the standard courseware: Standard Content Generation . • The First Step: On-Line Courses. • The Second Step: Virtual Class Room. • Building the standard multilingual LMS: To Start VU Culture • Building the Digital Library. • Toward Deployment: Realizing the Complete E-Environment
