Abstract
This chapter outlines and defines e‐learning in its various contexts. It reviews several e‐learning frameworks and provides an integrative framework though which the research on e‐learning is reviewed. Given the centrality of e‐learning to both corporate and educational training and learning initiatives, it is important for organizations and educators to understand how best to leverage technology in the design of e‐learning initiatives. The chapter provides a set of evidence‐supported guidelines for research to build on and for designers to build more effective e‐learning initiatives. It reviews a number of e‐learning frameworks and integrates them into an overall framework. This framework considers the role of the learner/trainee, the instructor, course design, technology, and the organization serve as inputs to the learning process. In turn, several motivational, behavioral and cognitive processes mediate these inputs and impact learning outcomes such as satisfaction and performance.
