This growth has been stimulated in part with the increasing use of networked computers as a medium for network-enabled transfer of skills, information, and knowledge in various areas. The traditional context of learning is experiencing a radical change. The concept of traditional education does not fit well with the new world of lifelong learning, in which the roles of instructor, students, and curriculum are changing. Rather than replacing traditional classrooms and teaching methodology, E-Learning should serve as a complementary mechanism to lifelong or remote learning.Today, Egypt has thousands of training companies and institutions giving training and educational programs, including degree, non-degree and certificate programs. The need to evaluate an E-learning system has been proved to be vital to establishments in the planning phase of their training programs. The choice is critical and quality management becomes crucial. One of the biggest E-learning projects in Egypt is the E-learning system of the ministry of education. This system is based on a well known collaboration suite named Centra. On the other hand, E-learning in the Egyptian universities/institutions is still in the very early stage. There are many theoretical and technological issues that need to be explored. Therefore, the need for a tested quality management scheme is becoming crucial.E-learning quality has been defined in terms of the design of the e-learning experience, the contextualized experience of learners, and evidence of learning outcomes. However, E-Learning course design and overall program quality are sometimes compromised in an effort to simply get something running in response to pressing demands of the consumer. Accordingly, educators and researchers have voiced concerns over the lack of appropriately rigorous evaluation studies of E-Learning programs and systems. Hence, comes the Demand-Driven Learning Model (DDLM) as a Quality Standard. The DDLM has five main components: the quality standard of \"superior structure,\" three consumer demands (content, delivery, and service) and learner outcomes. It is important that these constructs are operationally defined to allow easy application of the DDLM by practitioners and researchers.On the other hand, Literatures have shown different best practices in the area of assessing and evaluating E-Learning quality in different contexts and in different countries. However, best practices in Egyptian context are still very limited and not mature enough to be reported. Accordingly, the objective of this paper is to demonstrate the best practice of the Hybrid E-Learning model at the Regional IT Institute, as well as to evaluateInternational Journal of Internet Education http://ijie.","PeriodicalId":196587,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Internet Education","volume":"130 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116014446","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The application divide the learning of facial expression in small tasks, containing positive reinforcement each time the child wins or loses. The educator has access to the settings menu of the game, can increase or reduce the amount of interaction between the child and the game can select the facial expression to be worked. The first screen of the game displays an image chosen by the educator, presented a screen with \"n\" bins \"m\", in order to improve the learning of the facial expression desired. After the child be able to reach all the \"n\" screen positions, more interaction will be added with the goal of strengthening the learning. In each phase, a new image, in different positions, it will be displayed on the screen, representing different levels in the game, this process is repeated during all phases of the game. In the end, the educators have access to the report containing the results corresponding to each phase of the game, with the amount of interaction, amount ringtones on other buttons, the amount of touches on other buttons, amount ringtones on out of buttons, time spent to complete each phase, as well as their statistics.","PeriodicalId":196587,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Internet Education","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114187530","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
