Abstract
The need for educators to respond to the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR), is characterized by competency-based curriculum (CBC)—education that is learner centered with new approaches to curriculum design, pedagogy, and technologies, thus e-learning. However, there is need for knowledge on how all these are aligned through education psychology, the convergence zone, and the platform for virtual learning. This is a process driven by an e-assessment for cognitive efficiency, higher levels of thinking, and metacognition. The author attempts to harmonize this knowledge by aligning the curriculum, pedagogy, assessment, and ICT. The author also proposes a conceptual model, which is derived from learning theories and dimensions, e-assessment attributes, and an e-learning platform towards lifelong and sustainable learning.
