Abstract

Of the total of 7.2 billion of world population, three billion of them are internet users. During 2013, the numbers of internet users in Indonesia have reached 74.75 million, including 31.7 million ‘Netizens’. The numbers of computer users are more than the number of internet users. These computer users are very susceptible to RSI (Repetitive Strain Injuries) which may be in the form of physical disorder, such as MSD (Musculoskeletal Disorders) or CVS (Computer Vision Syndromes), and various mental disorders. These disruptions are mainly due to people’s ignorance to ergonomic positions and incorrect attitude in using the computer for years. The biggest enemy of modern people is called ‘Disease of Civilization’, a disease caused by the changes in civilization due to the advancement of technology and bad life-style. Overcome the impact of modernization, people find the solution by “think backward” to old concept of the ancestors. Traditional exercise, which at first used for defense mechanism against the nature and enemies (animal and human), is now applied in the work life. Computer users can stay healthy by doing traditional exercises and self-massages. These two prevention efforts are cheap, practical, effective, and no big space required, yet they are very effective and powerful to maintain the health of computer users. In particular, the authors intend to invite computer users to cultivate “Safe and Healthy Computing’’ (‘‘Aman dan Sehat berKomputer’’ = ASK) by integrating exercises as a their life-style

Abstract

The use of information technology in all areas of life has also brought its impact to the educational environment. Technology has changed the way students learn. Because engagement is an important factor in the learning process, technology facilitates students to engage in a traditional classroom. Therefore, the integration of technology in e-learning should be able to increase student engagement. Lecturers are expected to use e-learning appropriately to trigger the students’ engagement. E-learning does not only offer flexibility, but e-learning is also used to improve the interactivity between lecturers and students. This study aims to examine the factors of student engagement in an e-learning environment. On the other hand, measuring student engagement in e-learning is a difficult problem. It is necessary to discuss the factors that affect student engagement according to several frameworks. This study examined six frameworks initiated by Dixson, Meyer, Garrison, Swan, and Martin. This study also focused on the factors that mainly influence student-student, student-lecturer, and student-content interactions because these factors are related to student engagement. This study found that e-learning creates a learning environment that students need to increase their involvement.

Abstract

E-learning is a part of the advancement of information and communication technology, which is an important element in the world of education. To avoid the failure of e-learning implementation for achieving a goal, beforehand, it is necessary to know the factors that affect the process. This study used a literature review to explore appropriate inputs and outcomes for the tertiary leve of educationl. This study indicated four factors that need to be considered for implementing e-learning in higher education, such as student characteristics, lecturer characteristics, technology characteristics, and design and content characteristics. The emphasis of this topic was the characteristics of each factor in e-learning, especially in the higher education institutions. Besides, this study also reviewed several frameworks and their components related to e-learning. The successful implementation of e-learning depends on good development designs and implementation procedures of e-learning. In the end of this research, it constructed considerations that can be used for e-Learning implementation, specifically in the college level.
