These factors can encompass various online learning issues, including: pedagogical, technological, interface design, evaluation, management, resource support, ethical and institutional. Various factors discussed in the eight dimensions of the framework can provide guidance in the design, development, delivery and evaluation of \u00a0open and distributed learning environments.<\/p>\n<p>The E-Learning Framework was reviewed by scholars and practitioners from various countries around the globe, including (but not limited to:) USA, Canada, UK, Australia, New Zealand, Netherlands, South Africa, Turkey, Korea, Oman, India, Italy, Slovakia, Egypt, Iran, Chile and China.<\/p>\n<p>The E-Learning framework has the potential to provide guidance in<\/p>\n<ul>\n<ul>\n<li>planning and designing e-learning and blended-learning materials (e.g., MOOCs, Mobile Learning),<\/li>\n<li>organizing resources for e-learning environment\u00a0and blended-learning materials,<\/li>\n<li>designing distributed learning systems, corporate universities, virtual universities and cyberschools,<\/li>\n<li>designing LMS, LCMS and comprehensive authoring systems,<\/li>\n<li>evaluating e-learning,\u00a0blended-learning courses, and programs,\u00a0and<\/li>\n<li>evaluating e-learning authoring tools\/systems, LMS and LCMS.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong>pedagogical<\/strong><\/span> dimension of E-learning refers to teaching and learning.
