Technology adoption and the integration of computer-aided learning in Asian universities

Abstract

The human-computer interface is one of the main challenges while developing packages for e-learning. Extensive research has been done in the past that analyzed whether high-quality user experience depends on the design of an interactive system. Developing interactive spaces is vital for e-learning, as these advanced interactive spaces allow one to create own conceptualizations from the provided educational content. In addition, users can follow their pathways by adopting a combination of constructionist-constructivist approaches with no restrictions on learning paths and styles. It also gives maximum user autonomy to choose their own pace of learning. There has been a rapid increase in the adoption of e-learning, mainly due to the advancements in the Web and internet, electronic communications, and other associated technologies, which further motivate organizations and educational institutions to adopt e-learning to improve accessibility. This paper discussed the issues that needed to be resolved so that the e-learning support tools could effectively be integrated within an e-learning environment. This study is conducted in a prior case study, which observed how the e-learning environment contributes to learning and teaching relational data analysis (RDA) among undergraduate students. The present study discussed the potential and actual use of computers in these teaching packages. Furthermore, the study emphasized the role of the computer in teaching e-learning applications and computer-aided courses.
