ICT Assignment
Introduction
This assignment involved coursework and the setting up of E-Learning course material on Blackboard for my Fire Safety students.
In this report I will give a short explanation of the techniques I used, together with the relevant screenshots I included on Blackboard.
I will also examine the course statistics generated from student use, for example: student access statistics and quiz results statistics.
I will finish this report with my conclusions on the production of the E-Learning course and the outcome of the statistics produced.
Background
E-learning is a method used to facilitate and enhance learning through the use of computer and communication technology. Devices involved with e-learning may include: personal computer; digital television; P.D.A.s; mobile phones; the use of the Internet; email; discussion forums and software such as the one used in my assignment, ‘Blackboard’.
E-learning may be used for distance learning but can be used to supplement direct contact learning in a variety of ways. Students can keep in touch with each other as well as the course tutor. Tests can be conducted on-site, resources made available, presentations provided and assignment material made available.
A Virtual Learning Environment is created with course material being managed by the tutor and made available to all his learners allowing interaction with each other.
A well organised and interactive e-learning environment would contain text, pictures, sound, video, animation and interactive exercises.

The Basic Fire Safety in the Workplace course which includes Fire Safety in the Home will offer a variety of resources and exercises for all my learners. Different versions of some
