Analysis of emerging barriers for e-learning modelsa case of study

Resumen

The diffusion of the e-learning model during the last decade has contributed to solve many problems concerned with education at the workplace. Technological progress has significantly contributed to eliminating most limitations of the traditional education model, through improved access, diffusion of information, and the adaptation to individual needs. However, e-learning is an instrument, which does not ensure the automatic achievement of intended goals. We analyze some organizational features, which are linked to learning in organizations and might help to better explain success of an e-learning program. In particular, we to assess the impact of both incentives and the assignment of a specific period of time for education on satisfaction and learning, using a bivariate ordered probit model. The analysis sheds light on key practical organizational features, which should be taken into account in order to improving results of elearning programs.
