iLearn, which stands for Innovative Learning Environment and Research Network, is a web-based “collaborative learning environment” built to support formal and informal collaboration, ranging from fully online and face-to-face courses to faculty committee work and student clubs. The system provides a range of communication and information management tools designed to facilitate interactions with content, between instructor and students, and peer to peer. |
