Description
Summary:The main purpose of virtual or e-learning systems, like traditional systems based on physical presence, is to transfer maximum concepts from published sources, especially from the teacher, to the recipient of knowledge. Improvement in this process is possible only if the achievement of the goal, or in other words, the effectiveness of the knowledge transfer process, is measured appropriately and validly. Although different models have been proposed to measure the effectiveness of education in traditional systems, new and virtual education systems have fundamental differences with previous types that make the use of those models inappropriate. In this paper, considering the specific features of e-learning systems, a model for measuring their effectiveness has been developed, emphasizing measuring learning rather than measuring education. In this model, the factors affecting learning in e-learning systems are identified, and a preliminary equation is derived to determine their relationship.
