Given the new Internet
technologies penetrating all domains of our
lives, learning is no exception to this phenomenon. The more mature
technologies get, the more companies offer eTraining and eCoaching
programs to their employees, more and more Universities create a
special online curriculum and introduce distant learning systems. |

Learning organization |
|

The old folk wisdom says
that we all learn throughout our entire
life. This has become especially true in today’s highly competitive
business and academic life. The learning organiaztion is the institutionalized
form of life-long learning. This concept
- allows you to spread the information through the network
- reaches every single individual in your organization
- ensures continuous learning, hence a competitive advantage
- facilitates formal and informal communication in the organization |

Principles |
|
|
| eLearning and eTraining
concepts have taken over many elements from traditional classroom-based teaching,
as these principles have developed during many centuries and are just a part of
the picture people have about teaching and learning.
However the new environment
created by the Internet, supported by innovative technologies gave birth to new
principles as well as improved traditional ones:
- asynchronous vs. synchronous
learning, where students and trainees learn on their own or in a supervised group;
- student or teacher
centered learning, depending on whether the student or the teacher stands in the
leading position determining the pace of progress;
- individual or group
centered learning, taken advantage of either the undivided attention granted to
one single student or of the benefits and influences of a group;
- informal communication,
creating opportunities and “institutions” on the online teaching platform
for information exchange (cafeteria);
