    • Abstract:
      E-learning leverages communications technology to broaden the learning environment for students. The internet has had a significant impact on the ways in which students learn and teachers teach; e-learning, or electronic learning, extends the learning environment into this virtual realm. E-learning takes place in an online, computer-based environment and covers a broad range of teaching techniques and practices. These include online instructional presentations, interactive lessons, and computer-supported in-class presentations.
