Parsing an LMS-Based E-Learning Course Through Different Pedagogies

The didactic/mimetic dimension is reflected in recorded lectures, quizzes, and step-by-step tutorials where learners mainly receive information and imitate demonstrated procedures. The authentic/synthetic dimension appears when learners engage in discussion forums, collaborative tasks, or project-based assignments that require them to apply concepts to real-world problems and integrate ideas across topics. The transformative/reflexive dimension is present to a more limited extent when the course includes reflective journals, self-assessment, or peer feedback that prompt learners to examine their assumptions, learning strategies, and growth. Overall, many LMS-based e-learning practices strongly support didactic and authentic learning, but they become truly transformative only when reflexive activities are intentionally designed to develop learner agency, critical reflection, and deeper changes in understanding.
