(An excerpt from a listserv posting by Kathy Murrell of South Africa):
“In multiple choice questions the selected option was marked by a "tick" symbol (as apposed to a "cross" sorry no ascii equivelent). I presume the American equivelent to be a check mark, but for most South Africans' this represents the mark next to a correct answer, - it was most disconcerting to get an error or wrong message next to the mark and many students may not even bother to read the message as they would presume it to be the correct answer. “

I strongly believe that the e-Learning Framework can provide guidance in the design, development, evaluation and implementation of:
- Online Courses - e-Learning Environments- Distance Education Programs- Virtual Universities- Learning Management Systems
Furthermore, the e-Learning Framework can be used by Ministry of Education or Department of Education to formulate and evaluate:
- Virtual Education Policies- Accreditation Criteria for Online Programs- Online Teacher Training Initiatives
