Abstract

E-learning is a vision that has sparked a wide-ranging enthusiasm for moderators, course designers and learners. Asynchronous conferencing is currently central to this vision. Some educators assume that supporting learners who use this medium is the same as supporting them in the classroom. However, this is not the case. This paper outlines the current research into providing signposts that enable us to improve the training and support offered to new e-moderators and e-course designers. It suggests a classification of roles and tasks that together with an e-course framework will help to maximize the benefits of e-learning and enable all participants to migrate successfully to the new environment.
