Speaking the E-learning : Discussing the general terms.

Before i start sharing the other information about this Burning topic for present era, there are some basic terms that every one should be aware of when talking, reading and writing about this
"E-learning" which are discussed into different parts as Process, Design, Team and Technical Terms and are as follows:

The Process: 
The appropriate Instructional design model helps to achieve the instructional goals and better understanding of work. It is a abstract design rule for a particular model. Even the term Storyboards helps a lot in the E-learning as its a sequence of drawings with some given directions for better understanding of the topic. Prototypes are used for the guidance of building final plans and products. Quality Assurance and Testing is the important aspect to keep in mind whether it is product related or service related or related to study materials.

The Design: 
The next points to discuss is User interface and navigation is the important aspect in every design and structure as it is the mean of interaction and gives us the information & data of ascertaining position of the user. Typography and white space are other parts of the Design. Media term is meant for mass communication between N number of users. Consistency of data and the work is important, it should be accurate and done in the same way as required. 

The Team:
Every organisation, company or firm works only with help of Team and their collaborative working. There are SMEs (Subject Matter Expert) in every groups who is expert in their domain and is an authority in a particular area or topic. And the term Designer here refers to the person who will provide the structure and design for the overall working of the project or task.
