Abstract :
This paper provides a metareview of how e-learning content is currently
being produced and embedded in the learning practice in further education,
work-based learning and community learning contexts. Based upon this
metareview, the paper has identified four categories of content production
used: (1) learner-authored content, (2) practitioner-authored content, (3)
commercial- and public sector-commissioned content and (4) combinations of
these categories. The metareview also identifies several well-used, practitionerbased
and institutional models for embedding e-learning content into practice,
exploring some of the implications of this upon practitioners.
