Purpose The purpose of this paper is to gain a better understanding of the challenges to the emergence of a learning organization (LO) posed by a context of generational diversity and an enterprise social networking system (ESNS). Design/methodology/approach This study uses a qualitative methodology based on an analysis of 20 semi-structured interviews in a high-tech organization and internal company documents relating to the introduction of a new, centralized ESNS. Findings This study uncovers fundamental differences between Generation X and Y employees regarding their ESNS adoption and use. While Xers take more time to adopt the new centralized ESNS introduced into the company, their use seems in line with the company culture and corporate norms of behavior. At the same time, even if Yers are faster ESNS adopters, they use it as they use Facebook disregarding the hierarchy and organizational boundaries. This creates tensions between Generation X and Y and undermines the formation of the LO. Research limitations/implications As conclusions are specific to a context of a single organization, the authors recommend other case studies, to enrich the findings. Originality/value By highlighting how the use of social networks modifies who has the power and the control over knowledge in an organization, this paper enriches the theory on the LO. It has implications for managers wishing to design LOs in the context of intergenerational diversity.

This chapter is an exploratory investigation of the relationship and interaction between the learning organization and organizational learning in terms of an enabling role of knowledge management. In the severe and dynamic business environment, organizations should respond quickly to their rivals and environment by transforming into a learning organization. A learning organization could provoke innovation and learning through its structure, task and process redesigns, and evermore adapt gradually toward the eventual goal of organizational learning. Therefore, the dynamic process between the learning organization and organizational learning is an important issue of current knowledge management and practice — that is, the enabling role of knowledge management could enhance the interaction between learning organization and organizational learning. Furthermore, the authors will explore the relationship and interaction between the learning organization and organizational learning in terms of knowledge management processes in business. Two cases, TSMC and Winbond, the semiconductor and high-tech firms in Taiwan, will be studied to illustrate the findings and insights for the study and the chapter.

Android system has become the world's most widely used phone platform, overtaking Symbian in the fourth quarter of 2010, and the software of choice for technology companies who require a low-cost, customizable, lightweight operating system for high tech devices without developing one from scratch, so it is possible used in rural distance learning. The text introduced a method of rural distance learning based on Android system, and the software design is given, the test effect is shown. The terminal users can get the information service through the Android system phone, which is suitable for rural users.

This article concerns distance learning in modern conditions, its principles of operation, advantages and disadvantages, problems of students learning remotely, and also tells about our own experience of overcoming problems associated with the distance learning organization. In this article the difference between external programs and distance learning is being given, with the following describing features of the process. The authors cover the issues of organizing a proper distance learning process and analyze the experience of telecommuting and problems revealed by coronavirus restrictions. Results of the research suggest the structure of distant courses and discussion of distance learning strengths and weaknesses that teachers all around Russia faced to. Also attention is paid to analyses of the best suitable tasks that perform all goals of educational process and the problems that were discovered are being suggested solutions and ways to eliminate them.

Problem and goal. The problem lies in the effectiveness of the formation of motivation for the productive information activities among the subjects of the educational process. The goal is determined by the need to train specialists, taking into account changes in the field of education that have occurred due to the introduction of digital technologies in education and risks of digitalization generated by technogenic processes in the educational environment. Methodology. The author's programs and funds of evaluation tools were used, practical tasks and research project topics were developed to include them in the programs of pedagogical and industrial practices of undergraduates. The materials are based on the author's developments, which are reflected in the textbooks. In practice, the following technologies have found methodological justification for the implementation of the discipline: information and communication technologies for universal use, Big Data, distance learning, blended learning, organization of project activities of students. Results. The introduction of the discipline Digital Didactics allows undergraduates to form new competencies. Conclusion. The competencies formed during the training of the discipline Digital Didactics enable to take into account the existing changes in the field of education.

The article considers the issue of doing professional (pedagogical) traineeship by university students in a remote form. Based on the analysis of methodological recommendations of the Ministry of Education and Science and educational departments of various universities of Ukraine, the authors consider changes in the content of a remote form of professional pedagogical practice of future teachers and formulate factors that contribute to its organization and fulfillment: the developing of a set of methodological recommendations for trainee students with regard to specifics of the specialty (content of practice by modules, types of activity, determining the procedure for registration and submission of reports, providing samples of documentation); determining the messengers to be used for communication with methodologists and practice leaders; students’ mastering the technologies of online learning – a complex of educational technologies (technologies of developing, projecting, mixed, differentiated, programmed, modular training, etc.), and also information-communication (digital) technologies of creating, compiling and saving, and accessing the electronic educational resources on various subjects (integrated courses), which provide an opportunity to implement the process of remote learning; organization of practice with regular interaction of the subjects of online learning (pupils, teachers, trainee students) during classes and consultations held online and provided by the transmission of video, audio, graphic and textual information in synchronous and asynchronous mode; participation of students in webinars on the chosen specialty to adopt the experience of their teachers-practitioners. Thus, the analysis of the source base provided an opportunity to draw the following conclusions: remote form of industrial pedagogical practice requires: development of a set of methodical recommendations for students-interns taking into account the specifics of the specialty (content of practice by modules, types of activity, determination of the order of registration and submission of reports, provision of samples of documentation); identification of messengers who will communicate with methodologists and practice leaders; mastering by the student of technologies of distance learning - a complex of educational technologies (technologies of developmental, project, mixed, differentiated, programmed, modular training, etc.), and also information and communication (digital) technologies of creation, accumulation, storage and access to electronic educational resources on subjects (integrated courses), which provide an opportunity to implement the process of distance learning; organization of practice with regular interaction of distance learning subjects (students, teachers, trainees) during classes, consultations conducted remotely, and provided by the transmission of video, audio, graphic and textual information in synchronous and asynchronous mode; participation of students in webinars on the profile of the chosen specialty to learn from teachers-practitioners.
