It also encompasses other forms of learning, such as learning at home or learning at work through e-mentoring and e-coaching. This article tries to portray the current scenario of the e-Learning practices and focuses on some of the major areas that need to be considered in designing a suitable learning management system (LMS). The article summarizes the role of artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance the virtual learning environment in e-Learning.
