Mapping the Spaces of Virtual Learning Environments

چکیده
Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs) are an expression of the post-modern school. In this paper we discover how the functional requirements of the VLEs affect and are being affected by the educational, ethnographic and social spaces. It is supported that educational effectiveness of VLE is not proportional only to the quality of learning material, but also to the general educational context of the VLE regarding social characteristics that should be in line with the normal school life. In order to eliminate certain negative issues related to empty and boring VLEs we study the mapping of educational, mental and social spaces into modern virtual environment’s philosophy of use.
