Intro: animated audio, one of the many media we use.

E-learning is an educational system that uses the Internet and other technologies and media such as animation, audio, video and printed material to reach learners with busy schedules or in dispersed locations.

Lessons are delivered over the Internet via modern but easy-to-use technology. Basically you need a browser to go to your virtual classroom.

Here lectures can be found and tutors and students meet 24/7. Whether you have 5 or 55 minutes, lessons are always available.
Once you have registered for the course of your choice you will receive confirmation of your unique username and password.

You can then enter your login details to access your course homepage or e-classroom.

The website will display a number of courses as well as the course of your choice.

Each course is divided into lessons, these are, when appropriate, divided into separate lectures (or topics).

You can browse and study these lessons in any order you choose.

However, we have listed them in recommended order of study, to enhance your learning experience.

Not all lessons or lectures are available from the start. They are posted as you progress.
There's plenty course content which includes lectures and notes, tasting tasks, news articles, extra reading, podcasts and videos.

You can open these by clicking on the title. You can also always interact with other students and your tutor.
 

Some lectures will conclude with an optional or compulsory assessment and essays.

These tests will be multiple-choice questions or will require a true/false answer. 

Essays will also be graded and each student can view his grades.

Students need to successfully complete all of the course  tests and, in some instances, practical assessments too.
