This review introduces state-of-the-art Web-based education and shows how the e-learning model can be applied to an anaesthesia department using Open Source solutions, as well as lifelong learning programs, which is happening in several European research projects.
The definition of the term e-learning is still a work in progress due to the fact that technologies are evolving every day and it is difficult to improve teaching methodologies or to adapt traditional methods to a new or already existing educational model. The European Community is funding several research projects to define the new common market place for tomorrow's educational system; this is leading to new frontiers like virtual Erasmus inter-exchange programs based on e-learning.
The first step when adapting a course to e-learning is to re-define the educational/learning model adopted: cooperative learning and tutoring are the two key concepts. This means that traditional lecture notes, books and exercises are no longer effective; teaching files must use rich multimedia content and have to be developed using the new media. This can lead to several pitfalls that can be avoided with an accurate design phase.
本综述介绍了基于网络的前沿教育，并展示了如何使用开源解决方案将电子学习模式应用于麻醉科，以及终身学习计划，这正在几个欧洲研究项目中开展。
由于技术日新月异，且难以改进教学方法或将传统方法应用于新的或现有的教育模式，“电子学习”一词的定义仍在不断完善中。欧洲共同体正在资助多个研究项目，以定义未来教育系统的新共同市场；这正带来新的前沿领域，如基于电子学习的虚拟伊拉斯谟交流项目。
将课程改编为电子学习的第一步是重新定义所采用的教育/学习模式：合作学习和辅导是两个关键概念。这意味着传统的讲义、书籍和练习不再有效；教学文件必须使用丰富的多媒体内容，并且必须使用新媒体来开发。这可能会导致一些陷阱，而通过精确的设计阶段可以避免这些陷阱。
