Identifying the e-Learning Facilities for Teaching and Learning Office Technology and Management Courses in Nigerian Tertiary Institutions
Published in Gopal Singh Latwal, Sudhir Kumar Sharma, Prerna Mahajan, Piet Kommers, Role of ICT in Higher Education, 2020
e-Learning refers to learning where technologies are utilized to administer educational curriculum outside the conventional class. e-Learning is the main information communication and technology (ICT) tool for instructional delivery. e-Learning means to structure and manage learning experience provided partially or wholly via a web browser or through the Internet, palmtop, e-book, world wide web, etc. The changes occur in most business environments. Tertiary institutions are mandated to create, adapt, and disseminate knowledge to individuals with better professional competencies. This could be achieved using e-learning facilities in the classroom instructions. Specifically, the office training and management (OTM) courses are expected to comply with 21st century technologywise since the secretaries are the custodians of the technologies. This paper focused on identifying the e-learning facilities suitable for the instructional delivery of OTM courses in Nigerian tertiary institutions.

E-learning may be described as learning that takes place wherever and whenever the student chooses to interact with electronically delivered teaching material. This is achieved through the delivery of (structured) material over communication networks or devices. In such cases, the relationship and communication between the teacher and learner becomes in-direct. This has led to the need for additional mechanisms to enhance individual and group learning experiences (e.g. discussion groups, interactive learning material). E-learning encompasses a number of standard tools such as: teaching material – reading lists, module notes, handouts and multimedia contentcommunication tools – e-mail, newsgroups, mailing lists and bulletin/discussion boardsassessment tools – electronic submission of assignments, self-tests, assessed tests.
Training

E-learning is a shortened version of the term electronic learning and refers to educational materials, computer-mediated communication and the delivery of instructional content through technology (Eddy and Tannenbaum 2003). The focus of this approach should remain on the learning rather than on the technology used to deliver it. E-learning began with military training videos in World War II and evolved with the invention of the personal computer in the late 1980s (Rosenberg 2001). This early e-learning consisted of CD-ROMs that would install training programs on the learner’s computer. The aviation industry was early in recognizing the advantages of e-learning, and aircraft manufacturers began to develop proprietary learning programs (Kearns 2010). Early computer-based training was plagued with difficulties, as courseware would function only on certain computer platforms, limitations of software made training boring (mostly long readings followed by multiple choice questions), development costs were very high and a lack of understanding of instructional design resulted in the creation of many ineffective courses (Rosenberg 2001).

In its early stages, e-learning was defined as technology-based learning with an IS in which learning materials are delivered electronically to remote learners via a computer network (McGill & Klobas, 2009; Smith & Rupp, 2004; Zhang et al., 2004). Recent technological advancements have meant that e-learning content, tools, and mechanisms are more enriched and better suited to students more than ever before (Ivanović et al., 2018). As such, many studies regard e-learning as an IS or platform that integrates a wide variety of instructional material (eg, images, text, audio, and video) conveyed through live chat sessions, online discussions, forums, quizzes, and assignments using 5 G cellular networks, satellite, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi (Al-Fraihat et al., 2020; Huang & Chueh, 2022). In particular, the widespread use of smartphones combined with the COVID-19 pandemic have made mobile learning a new educational and training option (Ali & Arshad, 2018; Feng et al., 2015; García et al., 2019; Huang & Chueh, 2022; Israel & Velu, 2019). In the current study, e-learning is a generic term that refers to IT-supported learning ISs.

The proliferation of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has been bringing several changes to all sectors of society. Especially, in the educational context, digital technologies have revolutionized the way of teaching and learning (Kumar Basak et al., 2018). E-learning enables the access to instructional process electronically, through Internet and computer use, without time and place restrictions (Choudhury & Pattnaik, 2020). As such, e-learning has dominated education, providing online learning environments with flexible participation and instant communication and collaboration (Krouska et al., 2019). Nowadays, the rapid growth of mobile technologies has affected education, creating a new mean of learning. Smart mobile devices have great potential as effective educational tools due to accessibility, easy to use, and multifunctional components provided (Al-Emran et al., 2018). As such, mobile learning (m-learning) has emerged, becoming a tendency where smartphones and tablets are used to promote learning (Troussas et al., 2022).
Artificial Intelligence in Music Education
Published in International Journal of Human–Computer Interaction, 2023
The results of this study point to the promise of higher quality learning with AI, which coincides with the previous studies where AI has been applied as an element in classroom and online learning (Ben-Tal et al., 2021; Chamberlain et al., 2021; Chen et al., 2021). Because AI is located on a specialized server to which access is provided, the use of AI almost always requires online learning platforms. There are numerous eLearning platforms in the market that offer multiple functions, including the delivery of knowledge in the form of multimedia. The eLearning platforms enable communication between participants in the course and the instructor via discussion forums, one-to-one video calling, video conferences, etc. The most used eLearning platforms are Moodle, OLAT, Claroline, and Dokeos. These platforms use open-source software, but commercial systems can also be tailored to specific needs (Miah, 2011). Using the functionality of these platforms, music teachers can support the synchronous interaction of students during their orchestral or ensemble performance. From this perspective, AI appears to be the future of music education.
