Dental education technology refers to the use of technology in dental training and learning also known as dental eLearning. This refers not only to computers, but also to ubiquitous technologies present today (cell phones, mp3 players, PDA's, game platforms)

On this website you will find some of the latest developments in dental elearning. Most of the projects are at the bleeding edge of computer technologies. Some of them tackle the tools, visualization and outcomes of various dental elearning technologies.

What is the distinction among elearning, E-Learning, eLearning?

These are equivalent terms for the same concept and refer to the use of computer-assisted (or enhanced) learning.

To make things a bit more confusing, sometimes you will find terms like computer-based training (CBT), computer aided instruction (CAI), virtual learning environment (VLE), Managed Learning Environment (MLE), online education, mlearning, Learning Management System (LMS), Course Management System (CMS), Learning Content Management System (LCMS), Learning Support System (LSS) or Learning Platform (LP)computer-mediated communication (CMC), Online Education, etc. ..

While the technical distinction between these items is useful information, the most important points concern what they can do, and how you can use them. To assist with that, we  will rpovide a glossary of terms
