Koskela, Marileena; Kiltti, Piia; Vilpola, Inka; Tervonen, Janne – Electronic Journal of e-Learning, 2005
The number of virtual learning environments (VLEs) is increasing. Already a few case studies claim that VLEs are more effective as a learning method than traditional lecturing. Many of these case studies are in the area of information and communication technology (ICT). Therefore, the good learning results are not surprising. The aim of this paper…
