European megaproviders of e-learning
The MegaTrend project decided to apply concrete and measurable
indicators of the critical mass required for a European Mega e-learning
Provider. This involves the following four dimensions:
-
an e-learning system with more than 5000 enrolments per year
or
-
an e-learning system with more than 100 courses on offer
on any one time.
-
this project focuses only on distance learning situations,
which means that that courses should be included only if designed
for and aimed at distance (off campus) students and at least
50 percent is normally provided as e-learning. The provision
of some e-learning modules in forms of blended learning by face-to-face
institutions for their on-campus students is not the focus of
this project.
-
neither are the e-learning programmes offered by multinational
corporations to their European employees (often from a base
in the United States of America) a subject of this project.
The institutions are sorted by number of course enrollments in
2005 and by Country.
