Problem Centric Objectives for E_Learning Modules

Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) is in vogue for developing and launching courses in E_Learning environment. After the introduction of several Information and Communication Technology (ICT) based courses, launched in E_Learning environment, conflict with respect to same course contents of different nomenclatures, has led to misunderstanding of individual course objectives. Course Objectives play an important role in the TeachingLearning process of Technical courses, in particular to ICT courses offered in the E_mode. This paper as a result of a few research studies, attempts to explore the application of Problem Centric approach for specifying Instructional objectives for such conflicting courses. As a case study, the paper presents a survey report, derived through a Ph.D research work, using feedbacks on course objectives, for two conflicting courses, namely M.Sc (CS) and MCA courses. Feedbacks were obtained from both Academic experts as well as Managers of ICT Industries. Concluding remarks have been drawn from both the feedbacks received on the Instructional objectives of these courses.
