Sažetak
E-learning offers great opportunities for education quality improvement in both - the classical teaching combined with e-learning, and distance learning. Zagreb School of Economics & Management (ZSEM) is one of the few higher education institutions in Croatia that systematically uses e-learning in teaching. Systematically means that all courses are developed in e-learning form and that among all courses is used the same LMS (Learning Management System) WebCT. School management played an important role in the systematic introduction of e-learning in the educational process. At ZSEM we use a combination of traditional teaching methods with intensive use of e-learning. Each teacher is required to develop an e-learning course in accordance with default 11 standards developed by the e-learning group. In this way at ZSEM we currently have about 1, 200 students and about 120 advanced e-learning courses. Course named Management Information System (MIS) is on the list of obligatory courses for the 7th semester. In this paper we will show how to connect all the elements of Course Syllabus with e-learning system: online tests, discussions, WebCT activities, exercises, etc. Special attention is given to group projects and ability to project groups to jointly discuss, submit weekly reports and to project documentation within the LMS system. The research will show whether there is a correlation between the activities of students in a closed discussion among project groups and final grade.
