Designing E-Learning Systems For Corporation Training

This dissertation focuses on researches about e-Learning toward the corporation training. With the rapid development of ICT, e-Learning is emerging. But systematic researches around e-Learning toward corporation training are rarely found in literatures, Based on a comprehensive study of current literatures, this dissertation put forward a learning technology architecture on e-Leaming toward corporation training, a series of learning strategies, and learning model. On the basis of learning theories (i.e. behaviorism,constructivism, situated learning, etc), and perspective on the integration of knowledge management and performance technology, through the methodology of combining the practices of e-Learning and probing into the basic rules and architecture. Meantime, the dissertation revealed and constructed learning model for facilitating the performance of corporation training, also described the strategies of knowledge-building and knowledge-sharing, and verified them through case studies, field studies and collaborative study. All these works set a solid base for theoretical study and laid a foundation for e-Leaming practice.The main contents of dissertation are included as follows: (1) The evolutionary history and characteristics of e-Learning: After a brief introduction to the history of e-Learning, this dissertation discussed the features of e-Leaming, and clarified that in the knowledge age, it is a general trend for using e-Learning in the corporation training. (2) The concept of the corporation training : Introduction to concept and characteristic of the corporation training, Kirkpatrick evaluation model. (3) Knowledge management, performance technology and corporation training: on the basis of Nonaka's SECI model and framework of knowledge management followed by a discussion of e-Learning with respect to its features, system framework and applications, which lead to the establishment of an...
