Abstract
The importance of the e-technologies available to support teaching and learning in e-learning systems is becoming increasingly evident to educators and system developers. In this chapter, the authors review some of the e-technologies and e-learning that are used to support the individual requirements of teachers, allowing them to provide the best opportunities to students, considering that the current situation, in which educational systems have new immediate claims, derived in part from the COVID-19 pandemic, motivated face-to-face educational practices to give way to remote activities mediated by technological resources. The new contemporary trends in e-learning and e-technologies development and applications utilize a wide range of available technologies, which are framed in web and virtual reality environments among other emerging technologies; therefore, the decision to use a particular technology must be based on solid research and evidence. This chapter reviews many of these e-technologies and provides information on their use, opportunities, and trends in development and applications.
