The article focusses on “preparing students for elearning”, and is organised under the following headings.
Introduction, Preparation Ecosystem, Preparing Students for Elearning, Role of the Student in Elearning, Role of the Instructor in Elearning, Role of Learning Styles, Profile of “Ideal” Online Student, Tasks to Complete Before Course Start, Support Documents for Students, Conclusion
