At my 1st post, I mentioned I would have an evaluation to check if my previous thoughts of what elearning is has changed throughout the whole course of NM3204. Well, one thing that really struck me for this module is that E learning is really not as easy and simple that I thought it was! To teach others something, it's not as easy as just getting the materials that you want to teach and just present it to the learner. It really takes alot of effort and time to create a learning and instructional design, going through various tedious steps and stages. Learners should really appreciate the lesson plan that the teachers created for the module. I realised that after creating the webquest project, as our group spent alot of time trying to create the task, processes, evaluations,etc. So, I do hope that if anyone (hopefully someone..~) gets the opportunity to try our webquest, please do appreciate the hard work we put in!
To conclude, I think E learning will be increasingly important in future education. Perhaps one day it will even take over most of traditional classroom setting learning? Not only will it be important in schools, but even in the business industry, where training and skill enhancement is pertinent to do well or survive in the industry.
If I do become a teacher in future, I believe that I can definitely make use of what I have acquired from this module.

Thanks for your motivating words and reflections. Yes, designing for effective learning is very difficult and it is an ill-structured problem. Your intrinsic rewards come when learners begin to demonstrate that they are actually fulfilling the outcomes of learning.
