What effect might meaningfulness and insight have in e-Learning contexts?
Each students; response will be different as they connect to material in different ways. Constructing meaning by drawing from their previous experiences. E-learning contexts that are interactive will e more projective because the sharing of ideas will stimulate thought and encourage learners to look for patterns and make sense of information.

How can we use Advance Organisers in e-Learning contexts?

The way we present content with technology must be considered. We need to start with simple activities and progress to more complex content by using technology to structure the sequence of what will be learnt and when.

What effect might e-Learning contexts have for the Humanist approach?

To learn by doing you need technology that can facilitate this: Practice and practical simulations and first hand experience through videos. Encourage learners to participate, express themselves and be self-determined. Create a non-competitive environment that is cooperative. A humanist approach could use e-learning as a resource of ideas, concepts and actions that they must be encouraged to go out and achieve in the real world, in their workplaces. The e-learning context can be used as a way for them to reflect on the experience they had and report back to other learners with further stimulus.
