“Learning Theories and E-learning” Please respond to the following:

·        Identify a learning theory that you consider as the most appropriate theoretical framework to support the e-Learning process. Provide a rationale for selecting this theory.

·        Discuss this statement: “Education is undergoing a theoretical shift from programmed learning and information processing approaches to knowledge building and transfer. Instead of focusing on how information is received, stored, and recalled, learning theorists are now turning their attention and concern to how knowledge is constructed within the learner’s mind, and the learner’ s interactions within a cultural and social context.” Does the e-Learning process support this statement? Explain.
