Major Developments
Oslo, March 2005 – "Online Education and Learning Management Systems – Global eLearning in a Scandinavian Perspective" is the title of a interesting publication by Dr. Morten Flate Paulsen. The volume contains contributions concerning online education in Denmark and Sweden by Søren Nipper and Carl Holmberg.

Prior to the year 2000, Scandinavian universities offered selected online courses that attracted a few pioneering students. Today even primary schools offer online services to students, teachers, and parents. Online education is becoming mainstream education in Scandinavia.

This book is intended for an international audience with an interest in education and the Internet. It will be of special value to students, teachers, course designers, administrators, decision maker, and educational officers in the public and private sectors.

The work discusses major developments in online education and provides illustrating examples from the author’s Scandinavian and international research. It includes articles outlining a theory of online education, teaching techniques, learning management systems, recommendations for decision makers, and terminology.

The author, Dr. Morten Flate Paulsen, has worked in the field of online education since 1985. In this book he combines theoretical articles with popular anecdotes and personal experiences. This untraditional approach makes the work comprehensive, interesting, and enjoyable.
