Development of a quality assurance system for e-learning projects

There are many ways in which eLearning can be applied in tertiary education. Because the applications can be technologically complicated, and because their use does not always match well with traditional modes of teaching and learning, much care needs to be taken in the design, creation and implementation of eLearning solutions. UCOL has developed a quality assurance system that assists its eCampus team to provide effective eLearning solutions. Based on a set of four quality assurance procedures that facilitate five distinct applications of eLearning, the system combines flexibility with an effective design structure. The system further benefits from its clear step-by-step processes and self-correction through planned project reflection time.
