Successful knowledge transfer or diffusion of e-learning practice goes beyond precursor incentives and anticipated rewards for the individual lecturer. It also involves wider enabling of learning attributes and cultural capabilities in an organization. This paper examines how some of these attributes and capabilities play out in an educational institution in the context of web-enabled technology. An organizational-learning model is used to examine diffusion of practices after initial design and development. This paper is based on a case study of eight course-level e-learning projects in a university based in Hong Kong. The study illustrates a number of issues and challenges for the wider uptake of the initial idea from the individual course to the programme and wider institution.

Budget is one of the management decision-making tools, from activities to finance. One of the budgeting model can be applied is an Activity-Based Budgeting (ABB) model. The objective of this research is to propose the application of the ABB model in IT Enterprise in Jakarta. The object in this research is budgeting for e-learning projects that carried out by IT Enterprise in Jakarta. In the present time, the budgeting model applied is included in the traditional budgeting system, namely the Incremental budgeting model, in which the budgeting is conducted based on the budget in the previous year therefore sometimes the information used is less accurate. This research shows the differences between the ABB model and the Incremental budgeting model, as well as the evaluation of the application of each model. This research is a qualitative research, with descriptive exploratory research type in a case study. Research data was obtained from face to face interviews, observation of activities and documentation. ABB modeling is carried out by detailing activities in e-learning projects including human resources used, then compiling employee costs for these activities. The results of ABB modeling show that ABB has capabilities to provide more accurate information about activities, costs for activities, work process time, amount of human resources needed, total employee costs and project profit / loss. It can be concluded that the ABB model can provides the budgeting model needs of IT Enterprise.

Effectiveness is one of the major concerns in corporate e-Learning and is critical when projects face financial and time-to-market constraints. Organizations and corporate universities seek methodologies and tools to help them manage more efficiently diverse e-Learning Projects. This paper describes the outcome of a case study on the assessment of the effectiveness of an eLearning project (n=1317), from sixteen different corporations in the context of insurance and banking industry in Portugal. Results will be presented on the application of the methodology proposed by Levy for the assessment of the effectiveness of e-Learning systems. Based on the output of this assessment, this paper will present a new tool, the Learning Officer Decision Matrix, which will contribute to a more efficient management of corporate e-Learning projects.

The Impact

In this paper, we examined the nature and distribution (direction and intensity) of motivation for using e-learning, focusing the connection between the independent variables on one side and the Felder’s learning style on the other. The most relevant information that we wanted to examine and present is the individual ways of the respondents in adopting the same material. We were also interested in the ways to technically adjust the information delivery. The results confirm the statistical significance of the initial idea.
