Abstract

Technology is changing the way education is being delivered and educators are faced with numerous challenges. Whilst many educational institutions move into the "technology-rich" arena, educators have found it difficult to follow and use such environments to their advantage. Technology-rich learning environments offer the potential to take teaching and learning beyond the four walls of the classroom to where learning is based on real-world problems and learners become active participants in constructing their own learning. This paper critically analyses and reviews various e-learning materials for teaching photography in the undergraduate curriculum. It concludes that the e-learning tools which use rich multimedia, especially simulation (virtual camera), are most useful and engaging for students. They not only generate more interest but allow learning through 'exploration and investigation', in addition to attending and apprehending'; are providing more effective and a greater choice of learning experience.
