eLEM: A novel e-Learner Experience Model (2017)
Journal Article
Hammad, R., Odeh, M., & khan, Z. (2017). eLEM: A novel e-Learner Experience Model. International Arab Journal of Information Technology, 14(4A), 586-597

Many e-learning artefacts have been developed and promoted based on their ability to enhance learning and e-learner experience. However, there is a lack of precise definition of what the e-learner experience implies and associated models to inform th... Read More about eLEM: A novel e-Learner Experience Model.
