Jay Cross has a selection of eLearning definitions on his Internet Time eLearning Wiki.

 

Credited with coining the term "eLearning", Jay is the author of Informal Learning: Rediscovering the Natural Pathways that Inspire Innovation and Performance.

 

He is a champion of informal learning, Web 2.0, and systems thinking. He co-authored Implementing eLearning, served as CEO of eLearning Forum for its first five years, and writes a column on effectiveness for CLO magazine.


eLearning is dynamic. Today's content, in real time, not old news or "shelfware." On-line experts, best sources, quick-and-dirty approaches for emergencies.

eLearning operates in real time. You get what you need, when you need it.

eLearning is collaborative. Because people learn from one another, eLearning connects learners with experts, colleagues, and professional peers, both in and outside your organization.

eLearning is individual. Every e-learner selects activities from a personal menu of learning opportunities most relevant to her background, job, and career at that very moment.

eLearning is comprehensive. eLearning provides learning events from many sources, enabling the e-learner to select a favored format or learning method or training provider.

Greg Priest, SmartForce, The e-Learning Company

 


eLearning is the convergence of learning and the Internet.

Howard Block Bank of America Securities

eLearning uses the power of networks, primarily those that rely on Internet technologies but also satellite netowrks, and digital content to enable learning.

Eilif Trondsen, SRI Learning on Demand

eLearning is the use of network technology to design, deliver, select, administer, and extend LEARNING.

Elliott Masie, The Masie Center

eLearning is Internet-enabled learning. Components can include content delivery in multiple formats, management of the learning experience, and a networked community of learners, content developers and experts. eLearning provides faster learning at reduced costs, increased access to learning, and clear accountability for all participants in the learning process. In today's fast-paced culture, organizations that implement eLearning provide their work force with the ability to turn change into an advantage.

Cisco Systems

 

eLearning [is] the delivery of content via all electronic media, including the Internet, intranets, extranets, satellite broadcast, audio/video tape, interactive TV, and CD-ROM.

Connie Weggen WR Hambrecht & Co

We define eLearning companies as those that leverage various Internet and Web technologies to create, enable, deliver, and/or facilitate lifelong learning.

Robert Peterson, Piper Jaffray

eLearning is using the power of the network to enable learning, anytime, anywhere.
