E-learning training in work corporations: a review on instructional planning

Abstract

Purpose The purpose of this study is a bibliometric and descriptive review of the literature on instruction planning of training offered in the e-learning modality in work corporations to identify methodologies and experiences that will serve as a model for professionals working in planning e-learning training in the corporate context. Design/methodology/approach The timeline from 2010 to 2020 was adopted. Data were extracted from five databases and were compiled in the software Zotero. Based on defined criteria, 260 productions were identified. The interrelation and metric presentation of the data from these studies were done in the software VosViewer. Subsequently, were selected only free access papers, resulting in 64 publications. From these, the authors chose six empirical studies for a descriptive analysis based on specific criteria. Findings The range of hardware and software platforms has stimulated the use of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality and artificial intelligence (AI) resources in corporative training. The use of management tools such as voice of customer (VOC) and quality function deployment (QFD), can support those responsible for instructional planning. The literature presented important elements that should be considered for the proper planning of an e-learning training: learner: feedback, control of self-learning process, classification of cultural profiles in the case of courses in which participants are geographically distant and training management: content and delivery mode of instruction. Originality/value The authors selected six empirical studies that presented models, systems or experiences on training planning to support decisions in this area. This study contributes to the area of T&D showing an updated context of practices for the implementation of training systems that have been adopted in several countries. The authors present quantitative indicators of scientific production using two additional software to support the bibliometric review, namely, Zotero and VosViewer. This study used five databases and a research equation to systematically present the current panorama of research on training planning from the perspective of the areas of management and organizational psychology.

The Future of Adaptive E-Learning: Trends and Directions

“…These technologies can potentially enhance the personalization and effectiveness of adaptive e-learning significantly. For example, AI and ML can be used to track and analyze the learner's progress and adjust the content accordingly, leading to a more personalized learning experience [8][9]. Since involvement in e-learning goes beyond simple student-to-student interaction, it is crucial for effective learning.…”

Factors Influencing the Adoption of IoT for E-Learning in Higher Educational Institutes in Developing Countries

“…The goal is to identify the hypothesis, justification, problem situation, and conceptual framework published in the scientific literature about the terms and characteristics of smart universities, from which the role of the IoTs is emphasized as an essential component in the implementation and conception of projects and initiatives that affect the successful development of educational organizations. Similarly, Kaizer et al (2020) conduct a descriptive and bibliometric evaluation of the literature on the instruction planning for e-learning training in the workplace. The latest techniques and experiences are used as a model for professionals preparing e-learning training in the workplace are also identified.…”

Tecnologias digitais e cursos de Engenharia no Brasil: desafios e aprendizados decorrentes da pandemia

“…Nesse sentido, cabe ressaltar que: a eficácia de ações educacionais mediadas por tecnologias digitais não é determinada por estas, mas pela forma como os cursos são planejados (BELL et al, 2017;KAIZER et al, 2020). Além disso, a depender de cada realidade e objetivo educacional, deve-se investigar mais sobre o que funciona e o porquê, e quais recursos tecnológicos contribuem, realmente, para o alcance dos objetivos educacionais propostos.…”
