ICT and Computer mediated communication

Advancement of the Information and Communication Technologies enables the integration of technology with daily activities and education is not an exception. E-learning which applies the concept of open and distance learning, in simple definition is a concept of learning through the Internet. It had been reviewed as an efficient knowledge transfer mechanism. E-learning is seen as a future application worldwide as it promotes life long learning by enabling learners to learn anytime, anywhere and at one owns pace. My work focuses on developing and evaluating learning communities and attempts to address issues such as content delivery, Computer Assisted Assessment, and feedback. A proposed framework for evaluating online assessment techniques is particularly interesting. According to peer review comments to date, very little of the research in this area of learning has focused on such a topic. Especially the comparison of online assessment results against to more traditional methods to demonstrate the relative effectiveness of such an approach.
