چکیده

E-learning is the application of computer-based technologies to enhance teaching and learning (Waterhouse, 2003). Rosenberg (2001) describes E-learning as a networked activity, which makes it capable of instant updating, storage or retrieval, distribution and sharing of instruction or information. In this Information age, education has made a step from the traditional transmissive classroom to go online. The transmissive paradigm emphasizes on the transfer of knowledge from lecturer to student. Hence, it may not be conducive or meaningful as active learning occurs when students can take a pro-active role in questioning, sharing ideas and applying prior knowledge to develop new ideas. Students are more likely to learn from collaborative learning experiences mediated by technology than from transmissive pedagogies (Johnson & Johnson, 1996; Luca & McLoughlin, 2004). Education is less a process of instruction and more a process of creating environments. As Barry (2004) observes, "In education, one should concentrate less on creating process of instruction, but more on the process of creating learning environments”. To develop lifelong learning skills, students need to learn how to learn via inquiry and understand the sociocognitive and metacognitive processes that are involved (White, Shimoda & Frederiksen, 1999).
