Learning Institutions

There exists nowadays an enormous variety of models of e-leaning, from the technological, methodological and management perspective. At the university level, but also in company-training, in schools and formal education institutions, the different educational models appear, moving in a continuum from those who use technology as a complement or support to traditional attended sessions, to those that base the teaching and learning process in completely online environments. They try a variety of teaching methods while using differing degrees of virtualisation in the organisation (Bates, 2005). Years ago, when ICT in education started to be widely used, the success of the e-learning experience and the institutions themselves depended on their technological means; the platform was the most important of the model adopted by e-learning institutions. Initial efforts were put in market analysis aiming at finding out which was the best platform developed by ICT providers. Major investments in economical terms were dedicated to the acquisition of what was considered “the best” platform. Some years later, it was seen that institutions were different from the rest, and that not all educational platforms could cover all their needs. They realised that the success of their educational offer could not only be based on technology but in the learning materials provided. At that moment, the industry of online resources and hypermedia materials for educational uses grew up quickly. For some years, the success of e-learning mainly depended on the quality of the online materials provided, and that distinguish one institution from others.

The Faculty of Education at Australian Catholic University offers an online postgraduate course that focuses on the use of e-learning tools to facilitate changes in thinking, teaching and learning. It incorporates project-based learning techniques that require participants to learn how to apply selected ICT and e-learning tools to improve learning within their workplace. This has been based upon ongoing evaluations to determine ways in which experience with information and communications technology (ICT) and e-learning tools bring about a change of perspectives about their own teaching. Through identifying factors that inhibit, as well as promote their learning, the program focuses upon learning about ICT and e-learning tools to inform participants about their own teaching. This paper discusses how the implementation of an online postgraduate course has helped to facilitate a problem-based approach that provides a social construction for learning, by allowing the sharing of resources, discussion of approaches about implementation issues and the showcasing of final student projects.

Innovative Pedagogy

Higher education institutions (HEIs) are faced with the challenges of supporting learning and teaching processes in a new normal environment. It has been accorded in literature review that effective pedagogy drives meaningful curriculum change, and it is thus essential for the curriculum to be redesigned. Educators are confronted with devising innovative pedagogical strategies and redesigning their curriculum as a way of enhancing teaching and student e-learning experience in response to this pandemic crisis. But how prepared are educators to adopt innovative pedagogy strategies in their e-learning environment? How will decolonizing curriculum happen within a short period of time? and How prepared are lecturers and students to adopt a decolonial way of teaching and learning? The chapter observes that most educators are not well prepared to respond to curriculum change and as a result, do not feel confident to teach in a decolonial way. In this light, educators are faced with the problem of implementing pedagogy of eLearning strategies in order to achieve the desired learning goals.
