There are 4 basic concepts:
1. Face-to-face training
2. E-learning components as
Add-On of face-to face-training
3. Blended Learning
4. Fully virtual training
7. 4. Basic Types of E-Learning
I. Computer Based Training (CBT)
II. Web based training (WBT)
III. Online Seminars
IV. Virtual Classroom
+ a combination of these basic types
(e.g. Online Seminar + WBT)
8. 5. New Paradigm
in Teaching and Learning
„old“ paradigm
• Listening
• „push“
• Formal learning
• Emphazise on
knowledge
„new“ paradigm
• Interaction
• „pull“

If we want to implement successful E-Learning,
we need a new teaching and learning culture

• Methodological-
didactical
competences
• Media
competences
• Technical
competences
• Social
competences
