Academic staff and organisation leaders need support and careful guidance to help them implement e-learning technologies into their day-to-day teaching practises. This is according to an expert who suggested that despite the potential benefits of the virtual classroom, not enough is currently being done to successfully include systems in existing methods. Grainne Conole, director of the Beyond Distance Research Alliance at the University of Leicester, which brings together teachers and researchers interested in the field of innovation in teaching, said that funding from the government and the input of online learning specialists could encourage teachers to re-think ways of educating pupils and also help them to understand issues surrounding the modern learning technology.
