E-learning: a model and process proposal

The advent of the new technologies has brought the proliferation of artificial environments in distance and the blended learning. Most of the efforts have been addressed to the mere ‘transfer’ of paper and pen. Thus, we proposed the following theoretical reflection on the learning processes: studying classical didactics that have been revised from the point-of-view of the distance learning, individuating the new actors interacting in the didactics, and deducing a possible learning model. The theoretical reflection, presented in its model and conceptual aspects, finds its application in the realisation of an e-learning platform, IWT. The advantages of the state-of-the-art learning are also shown in this paper. However, this work is essentially limited to a general positioning of the e-learning and to a presentation motivated by the choices we have made in the theoretical, architectural, functional, and technological fields.
