Quizzes are not enough to reach high - level learning objectives !

This paper focuses on special problems about essential didactical aspects for course instructors like defining and evaluating learning objectives within the e-learning situation. Therefore, basics about competencies, learning objectives and assessments are treated with a focus on traditional education. By applying these concepts on e-learning, existing problems for e-learning courses are discussed in detail and some possible solutions are suggested. These approaches will be evaluated in the next phase of our research work.
