Abstract

E-learning aims to foster significant learning improvements through advanced educational techniques. A platform is designed for achieving the essential educational goal of lifelong learning where learners can constantly engage in upgrading. However, this paper surveyed the literatures and identifies significant shortcomings. Studies review that the status of e-learning at present is still purely of the style of "online information transmission" and fails to provide the personalization of learning. Integrating our understanding across the surveyed literature, a concept map approach is proposed for creating a functional and customized environment to address those shortcomings. This approach incorporates the Concept Map and ADDIE model theories into our instructional design. This system will be implemented using modern technologies and open software. The potential of Grid, Semantic Web and Web Services will also be garnered to provide a collaborative workspace to foster learning.
