E- Learning as a Strategy for Enhancing Access to Music Education*

E-learning is variously defined as a type of education where the medium of instruction is computer technology or delivery of learning, training or educational programmes by electronic means (Wikipedia). In another definition, e-Learning is described as internet-based hybrid learning or distance learning (Wikipedia). A final and concise description of e-Learning is the use of technology in learning in a much broader sense than computer-based training or computer aided instruction, and also in a much broader scale than online learning or online education (Wikipedia). This last description implies more than the technology used, referring to the actual learning that takes place using these systems.
