Privacy provision in e-learning standardized systems: status and improvements

A model for assessing the impact of e-learning systems on employees’ satisfaction

“…Advances in information and communication technologies, and specifically in multimedia, networking and software engineering have promoted the appearance of a huge amount of learning resources (Jerman-Blažič & Klobučar, 2005). The new technology has transformed the learning and instructing method in the organizations.…”

Ethical issues in Computer‐Assisted Language Learning: Perceptions of teachers and learners

“…For example, we thought learners would show considerable concern about their personal information, being contacted by mail about class activities and with teachers monitoring their learning activities. While these may be pertinent issues in countries such as the USA (Phelps et al, 2000) and in Europe (Jerman- Blazic & Klobucar, 2004), this study found that as long as a teacher is responsible for this information, Japanese students are not overly concerned about their privacy and security in e-learning settings. The authors can now use this knowledge to further our understanding of e-learning ethical issues in Japan.…”

“…Students must be able to choose whether they want to disclose their personal information to their teachers (Jerman-Blazic & Klobucar, 2004). As educators, we should also remember to treat any private information our learners give us valuably, just as we would expect our own information to be protected on the Internet (Brandt, 1998).…”

“…However, rarely do teachers stop to think about the consequences of their actions in the classroom and how they affect the learners with whom they interact on a daily basis (Heffernan & Wang, 2008). While the power of technology has greatly increased our ability to provide quality language learning experiences to our learners (Jerman-Blazic & Klobucar, 2004), there are ethical concerns that must now be taken into account that do not render a second thought in the traditional language classroom. However, these problems have not been sufficiently addressed so far in educational settings (Weippl & Tjoa, 2005), and consequently, not nearly enough in CALL.…”

A Multi-attribute Decision Support Model for Learning Management Systems Evaluation

“…Application security and privacy assessment is made using authentication, authorization, logging, monitoring and validation of input. It is also important to consider e-learning standards -standards for description of learners' profiles and standards for the description of learning resources [24]. In the context of elearning technology standards are generally developed to be used in system design and implementation for the purposes of ensuring interoperability, portability and reusability, especially for learning resources as they require for their preparation qualified professionals and are very time demanding [25].…”
