Description
Beyond E-Learning comes at a time of great transformation in how individuals and organizations learn and how they transfer learning into performance and value. Training—in the classroom and online—remains as important as ever, but it can’t do it all. E-learning is much more than “e-training.” The accelerating pace of knowledge growth and change, as well as the increasing pressures of the marketplace, require that we look for innovative approaches to complement training. Our responsibility for learning should not stop at the end of class. The technology-rich workplace requires new technology-enabled tools and strategies for workplace learning—anytime and anywhere, including knowledge management collaboration and communities, and performance support. These approaches and others are demonstrating important benefits in improving access to information and the ability to share it with others.
Moving beyond e-learning requires looking beyond a singular training mindset. Business leaders, from senior executives to front-line supervisors, will see how learning, and e-learning, will become more integrated into the work—and the life—of their organizations.
-
If you are a training professional, from an instructional designer to a Chief Learning Officer, you will be challenged to reconsider your role and see the expanded opportunities you have for influence.
-
If you focus primarily on technology, from the business side or the information technology side, this book will provide you with the business and learning perspective that will give your technology value.
-
Consultants in the learning and performance arenas will gain some new insights into how they can help their clients learn faster and better and how to position workplace learning as a driver of business results.
-
If you are a student in the learning and performance fields, this book will stimulate your thinking about the profession and its emerging new directions and, I hope, provide many opportunities for discussion and debate.
Beyond E-Learning, a sequel to the 2001 best-seller, takes you on a journey from where you are right now to where you need to be. It begins with considerations of e-learning and learning technology, but ends focused much more on performance. The first of three parts, “Beyond E-Training,” begins with a realistic assessment of the current state of e-learning. Part Two, “Beyond the Classroom,” showcases many new non-training approaches that expand the notion of e-learning, learning in general and performance improvement. In Part Three, “Beyond Learning,” the book describes several cultural issues you must take into consideration if you want your efforts to be successful and sustainable.
Throughout the book are woven stories of how organizations are using new technologies and new approaches to learning to extend their reach and impact beyond the classroom. In addition, essays by leaders and practitioners punctuate the presentation with their own unique thoughts about the field and the opportunities before us. A series of appendixes provide additional information on e-learning topics, an assessment, and a resource list.
