Smart eLearning for Smart Companies

Mannheim/Köln, Juli 2012 - Dr. David Guralnick, Ph.D., Kaleidoscope Learning will be the Conference Chair of the ICELW. His presentation on Thursday, 27. September 2012, 9:30 to 10:15 h, Conference-Room 3 has the titel: "Smart eLearning for Smart Companies: How Human-Centered Performance Technology can change the Business World".




Technology has the ability to improve employee performance in ways that go far beyond traditional training. In an ideal world, companies' employees have tools at their disposal to make their work lives easier, more efficient, and more pleasant, along with training activities that are engaging, active, and realistic.


In this session, we will discuss how to create such an ideal world, by using a human-centered approach to the design of eLearning and performance technology. This approach, which combines elements of research in the areas of cognitive psychology, education, computer science, and others, can lead companies to create a new, successful, modern work environment.
