Abstract :
The growing number of E-learning programmes and parallel developments in the field of information and communication technology (ICT) has put forth many technological options to both the learner and instructor communities. The advent and popularization of ubiquitous computing and mobile devices have redefined the concept of E-learning by providing learners with variety of options to interact with E-learning system while at the same time compelled the course designers to choose the appropriate technology among plethora of available technologies for knowledge representation, storage and distribution. This paper outlines technological research challenges and explores the available technologies suitable for employment for performing various activities related to E-learning
