Makale Özeti:

e-Learning is becoming more popular than ever with the advent of new technologies and
new inventions for teaching and learning. Hence, competent e-Instructors are key to
successful e-Learning implementations and they should have the appropriate skills and
experience for the effective implementation of e-Learning and blended learning. eInstructors
are instructors who might well be very experienced in teaching-learning
contexts and even possess a high level of technology literacy. However, being an
experienced instructor and possessing advanced skills of using technology does not
necessarily lead to an instructor becoming an effective e-instructor. The purpose of this
article is to understand which competencies are needed to be an effective e-Instructor
and how can we help individuals to acquire these skills? In order to answer these
questions, a broad literature review will help understand what the accepted competencies
are for e-Instructors, any existing strategies for professional development, possible
challenges to this process and any known solutions. On-going professional development is
essential for being a role model for learners and for effective usage of technological
environments. Based on the facts and research results in parallel with the advancement in
the technological world as instructors, they should keep themselves up-to-date according
to e-competencies defined for instructors and continue searching to make this process
easier for both instructors and learners to become more effective. Consequently, future
research studies can focus on the strategies and methods for self-determined, self-paced
and personalised instruction to cope with the e-instructor competencies.
