Introduction
The following ten project descriptions
reflect different potential outcomes of
the recommended ICT Policy for the
Maldives Education. If some or all are
undertaken, they will give practical
expression to the principles contained
in the ICT Policy and thereby
accelerate the process of economic
and social development of the
Maldives in the Information Age. The
descriptions are clearly not thoroughly
worked out project plans. In one way or
another, however, they are strong
project ideas that have emerged from
discussions with the role-players who
have participated with us in the ICT
Policy Study.

Introduction
ELearning has the potential to make an
important
contribution
to
reducing
educational deprivation, which in turn can aid
progress in achieving development goals. The
major obstacles to eLearning are connectivity,
equipment, software and training of people.
The Commonwealth of Learning is leading
several
initiatives
to
overcome
these
obstacles and help bridge the digital divide

What is eLearning?
The term eLearning came into regular
use around 2000. Its precise meaning is
not widely understood. The definition of
eLearning can be as simple as the
delivery of a learning, training or
education programs by electronic means,
involving the use of a computer or
electronic device (Daniel, 2009).

ELearning offers many important


advantages:

Anywhere, anytime learning. Learners can pursue


their studies at their convenience and are not limited
by geography or time constraints. This is of particular
benefit to people who face barriers to learning such
as living in a remote location, discrimination based on
gender
or
having
competing
work/home
responsibilities.
A window to a world of learning. ELearning allows
online access to a huge array of resources the
libraries and museums of the world, and much more.
Faster communication. ELearning speeds up
communication. Students benefit from timely
feedback, and electronic submission of assignments
eliminates delays in transmission.

Measuring
Effectiveness
of eLearning:commons.
the four 'A's

Access to
a global intellectual

A rapidly expanding array of open educational


resources (OERs) is available online as people
contribute eLearning materials to online repositories.
These materials can be freely used and adapted,
resulting in time and cost savings.
Measuring Effectiveness of eLearning: the four
'A's
By combining connectivity with shared courseware
into a new business model we could increase access
to education massively. What is required for this to
happen? For eLearning to succeed, it must be
accessible, appropriate, accredited and affordable.

ELearning offers many


important advantages:
Is it Accessible?
For eLearning to have any impact it must be accessible to the
learner. In extending eLearning to developing countries, the first
priority is to provide ready Internet connectivity. The second
imperative is to make OERs more accessible and to expand their
numbers.
Is it Appropriate?
Once eLearning is accessible, is what it offers appropriate? Does it
help to address the key challenges facing higher education in the
country? Does the content fit learners' needs and does it respect
their cultural context? Few subjects and delivery methods are
universally appropriate. However, OERs allow learning materials
to be made appropriate by local adaptation and translation
and there is a growing skill base among educators to do this.

conclusion
Executing a large-scale deployment of ICT solutions can be
very challenging, but at the same time can yield impressive
results for any country by affecting positive change in
education Nationwide in a very short period of time. Most of
the mistakes made at the planning stage of these large-scale
deployments can be avoided by first gathering real-world
information from a Pilot. But in order to do so, the pilot has to
be planned and the information gathering has to be organized
and validated with a string M&E Plan. I sincerely hope that
this practical guide can help you in planning for both the pilot
and the Large-scale deployment. We welcome your feedback.
