Management of Situated E-learning in Organizations

Complex products and services require both the sophisticated knowledge of individuals on the one hand and collective collaboration between various disciplines and teams on the other. Work-related individual and organizational learning processes in organizations appear to provide the foundations for such individual and organizational knowledge and capabilities. These interconnected learning processes would also seem to be situated in both a social and a physical environment. This paper proposes a methodology for managing situated individual and organizational learning. Empirical results from a questionnaire and two test bed organizations are presented and conclusions drawn from the assessment results on recommended measures for the use of e-learning.
