Abstract:
As in most developing countries, Sri Lanka is currently struggling to resolve how e-
Leaming might offer viable and effective solutions to a chronic shortage of available
student seats in its brick-and-mortar universities. This paper aims to examine and
critique Sri Lanka’s Ministry of Education policies towards higher education, and
subsequently, highlight what e-Leaming solutions, if any, can be effectively and
efficiently implemented. In doing so, this paper apprises a number of learning
management systems, and chooses a suitable one that addresses Sri Lanka’s educational
needs and also proposes an e-Leaming framework along with a learning content
deliverable architecture for fulfilling Sri Lankan deprived networking infrastructure and
the pedagogical environment.
