Similar terms<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Computerized learning systems have been referred to as:\u00a0e-learning, learning platform or Learning Management\u00a0Systems used by educational institutions. The major\u00a0difference is that a VLE and LMS is an application, whereas the Learning Platform share characteristics\u00a0with an Operating System (or CoursePark Platform) where\u00a0different educational web based applications can be run\u00a0on the platform.<\/p>\n

Range of Applications<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The terms virtual learning environment (VLE) and learning\u00a0platform are generically used to describe a range of\u00a0integrated web based applications that provide teachers,\u00a0learners, parents and others involved in education with\u00a0information, tools and resources to support and enhanced educa-tional delivery and management. These terms are\u00a0broadly synonymous with” managed learning environments'” MLEs) and \u00a0“managed virtual learning environments” (MVLEs).<\/p>\n

Applications Of Online Services<\/strong><\/p>\n

The applications that form part of these online services\u00a0can include web pages, email, message boards and\u00a0discussion forums, text and video conferencing, shared\u00a0diaries, online social areas, as well as assessment, management and tracking tools.<\/p>\n

Term Learning Platform<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The term learning platform refers to a range of tools\u00a0and services often described using terms such as\u00a0educational extranet, VLE, LMS, ILMS and LCMS providing\u00a0learning and content management. The term learning platform also includes the personal learning environment\u00a0(PLE) or personal online learning space (POLS),\u00a0including tools and systems that allow the development\u00a0and management of eportfolios. The specific functionality\u00a0associated with any implementation of a learning platform will vary depending upon the needs of the users and can be achieved by bringing together a range of features from different software solutions either commercially available, open source, self built or available as free to use web services. These tools are delivered together via a cohesive user environment with a single entry point, through integration achieved by technical standards.<\/p>\n

Engagement And Administration<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Learner engagement\u00a0and administration \u2013 managed access to learner\u00a0information and resources and tracking of progress and achievement Communication and collaboration – emails,\u00a0notices, chat, wikis, blogs In principle a learning\u00a0platform is a safe and secure environment that is\u00a0reliable, available online and accessible to a wide\u00a0user base. A user should be able to move between\u00a0learning platforms throughout their life with no loss\u00a0of access to their personal data. The concept of a\u00a0learning platform accommodates a continuously evolving\u00a0description of functionality changing to meet the needs\u00a0of the user.<\/p>\n

Support For Communications,<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Support for communications, including e-mail, threaded discussions, chat rooms, Twitter and other media, sometimes with the instructor or an assistant acting as moderator. Additional elements include wikis, blogs, RSS and 3D virtual learning spaces.\u00a0Management of access rights for instructors, their\u00a0assistants, course support staff, and students’ Documen-tation and statistics as required for institutional\u00a0administration and quality control Authoring tools for\u00a0creating the necessary documents by the instructor, and, usually, submissions by the students’ Provision for the necessary hyperlinks to create a\u00a0unified presentation to the students.<\/p>\n

Supporting Multiple Courses<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A VLE is normally not designed for a specific course or subject, but is capable of supporting multiple courses over the full range of the academic program, giving a consistent interface within the institution and\u2014to some degree\u2014with other institutions using the System Justification Institutions of higher and further education use VLEs\u00a0in order to: Economize on the time of teaching staff,\u00a0and the cost of instruction.<\/p>\n

Standards<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Most VLEs support the Shareable Content Object Reference\u00a0Model (SCORM) as a standard, but there are no commonly\u00a0used standards that define how the learner’s performance\u00a0within a course can be transferred from one VLE to\u00a0another.<\/p>\n

Many Environments<\/strong><\/h3>\n

There are many virtual learning environments for students in grades K-12. These systems are also particularly suited for the needs of independent educational programs, charter schools and home-based education.<\/p>\n

Assessment<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Educators need benchmark tools to assess a virtual\u00a0learning environment as a viable means of education.\u00a0Walker developed a survey instrument known as the\u00a0Distance Education Learning Environment Survey (DELES),\u00a0which is accessible to students anywhere,\u00a0examines instructor support, student interaction and\u00a0collaboration, personal relevance, authentic learning,\u00a0student active learning, and\u00a0autonomy.\u00a0approach based on training, implementation, system\u00a0usage, communication, and support.<\/p>\n

Systems Available<\/strong><\/h3>\n

There are many open source and proprietary VLEs\u00a0available for use [citation needed]. On-demand elearning\u00a0services are also a popular choice because they can be\u00a0deployed in minutes and do not require instructors and\u00a0institutions to run their own servers. Many VLEs are\u00a0placed on a web server. In a typical VLE there are one\u00a0are more programs or languages that provides the user\u00a0(Teacher-Student) interface, and which interacts with a database. For example, a VLE might use PHP as its web language\/program, with MySQL as a database.<\/p>\n
