Material preconditions and misunderstanding - the main factors limiting the effective e-learning implementation in the part-time educational programmes at universities
Abstrakt
A computer literacy of all participants and an adequate technical equipment are both necessary for an effective e-learning implementation into the process of education. Apart from those obvious preconditions, there are, however, additional material and operational ones which are often omitted, such as sufficient human resources, enough time available, and the financial support.
The article reports on a personal experience of teaching Greek and Latin medical terminology at the First and Third Faculty of Medicine in Prague, where undervaluation of these preconditions is a serious factor which limits the improvement of the e-learning. An emphasis on the lowest time expenditure possible leads, among others, to substantial limitation in the interactivity.
