CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Online refers to electronic learning, it is the acquisition of knowledge and
skill using electronic technologies such as computer and internet based
courseware and local and wide area networks.
Distance learning is one of the most dramatic
technology-based changes occurring in education today. Communication technology
enables learners to receive instruction despite geographic and time disparities
that would make traditional classroom instruction impossible.
Distance instruction is learner-centered—that is, it enables
learners to tailor the instruction that they are receiving to meet their individual
needs. Some distance programs use print media, some use telecommunications, and
many use both, but geographic and time separation of the student and the
teacher is a fundamental characteristic of distance education. Multimedia
instruction with networked computers, video systems, or television may be used
to connect the local classroom to learners at a distance. Satellite, compressed
video, and fiber-optic systems are increasingly used for same-time,
different-place education. This approach is also called synchronous
distance learning. Students can also learn at different times and in different
places. This approach is called asynchronous distance learning.
1.1 BACKGROUND OF STUDY
Early e-learning systems, based on
Computer Based Learning/Training often attempted to replicate autocratic
teaching styles whereby the role of the e-learning system was assumed to be for
transferring knowledge, as opposed to systems developed later based on Computer
Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL), which encouraged the shared
development of knowledge.
As early as 1993, Graziadei William
described an online computer-delivered lecture, tutorial and assessment project
using electronic mail, two VAX Notes conferences and Gopher/Lynx together with
several software programs that allowed students and instructor to create a
Virtual Instructional Classroom Environment in Science (VICES) in Research,
Education, Service & Teaching (REST). In 1997 Graziadei, W. et al,
published an article entitled Building Asynchronous and Synchronous
Teaching-Learning Environments: Exploring a Course/Classroom Management System
Solution. They described a process at the State University of New York (SUNY)
of evaluating products and developing an overall strategy for technology-based
course development and management in teaching-learning. The product(s) had to
be easy to use and maintain, portable, replicable, scalable, and immediately
affordable, and they had to have a high probability of success with long-term
cost-effectiveness. Today many technologies can be, and are, used in
e-learning, from blogs to collaborative software, e-Portfolios, and virtual classrooms. Most
e-learning situations use combinations of these techniques.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Looking around students especially
tertiary education suffers a lot of setbacks in external exams due to the
primitive nature of teaching system which they receive. They don’t have access
to global information hence lacks a huge knowledge of what is obtainable in the
society, the library is not equipped with good books and at the same time they don’t
have access to internet.
The rate of examination malpractice
has increased and attention must be given fast to it before it ruins the
education system of the country.
Also, distance is a barrier to some
people who seek to be educated.
1.3 OBJECTIVES
OF THE STUDY
1. To
provide alternative way of attaining education
2. To
implement a system which reduces examination malpractices
3. To
facilitate the development of information technology
4. To
enhance examination and certification of students thereby improving
the standard of education.
5. To
reveal the use and technology of wireless network to the user.
1.4 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
E-learning can provide benefits for
the organizations and individuals involved.
Improved performance: it is
interactive to the students thereby improving their productivity.
Improves standard of education: it eliminates examination inadequacies like examination
malpractices.
Increased access: it enables people from any part of
the world to be educated.
Convenience and flexibility to
learners: learning process is structured in units; this makes the learner study at
his own convenience without getting too bored with lectures.
Reduced cost: it reduces
the cost of learning, examination and result processing institutions.
1.5
SCOPE OF THE PROJECT
This
project is a tutorial and measurement of performance on wireless network
technology. The project is designed using PHP and MySQL.
1.6 LIMITATIONS
Due to
financial constrains, people cannot afford this form of learning and
measurement, especially towards the cost of accessing the internet.
Also,
the rate of technology is moving at rapid speed and not everybody understands
how some of the tools used for this education process are used.
1.7 DEFINITION OF TERMS
E-Learning:
learning conducted via electronic media, especially via the Internet.
World
