Implications for E-Learning in Adult Education Curriculum

Abstract

Technology plays a vital role in the field of e-Learning in adult education curriculum. The intent for this chapter is to explore the implications for e-Learning in hopes to stimulate attention as it relates to the acquisition of knowledge and inferences for higher education practitioners and program designers in terms of the contexts of students, embedded technology, and faculty. Conquering the challenges facing technology implications in any educational system is vital and ideally this chapter offers a means of collective literature to increase the quite extensive and potentially overwhelming components of effective curriculum programs within the field of adult education, using embedded technology. This chapter highlights briefly some of the concepts and identifies simple and applicable suggestions for increasing effectiveness of embedded technology into higher education curriculum and adult education teaching.
