Abstract

Abstract: The creation of eLearning in HE (Higher Education) is a complex issue and the accessibility of resources to students has not been widely assessed. Teachers in HE are subject experts, but have variable IT skills, transferring course resources to a VLE (Virtual Learning Environment) in digital form is a challenge. A wide range of skills and knowledge of computing, design, and pedagogy are required to create effective online learning resources. Currently the quality level of online learning resources in HE is generally controlled by academics. The cost of professional eLearning design is very high, so academics will be expected to acquire new skills, as well as find time to create quality learning applications in a digital environment. The addition of the requirement to comply with disability legislation is another level of complexity in the situation but has to be addressed to make online learning accessible to all students.
