Learning Path Construction in e-Learning

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Educational Technology ((LNET))

Abstract

E-Learning can provide various technological support to assist teaching and learning. This technological support mainly includes developing learning contents to instruct learning, setting up learning environments to engage learning, designing platforms and tools to enhance learning, organizing and standardizing learning resources to make the learning contents reusable and more formal.
