Performance support and social networks are two other key elements, and don’t neglect them. Don’t equate information with ability. One of the wrong ways to do courses is to get information from SMEs and present it to the learners (whether or not you add a knowledge test). Don’t forget the network. It’s human nature.

That first round of e-learning largely failed for precisely this reason. You can’t remove the humans from learning. Companies should embrace network-supported informal learning because it works better, not because it reduces labor costs. New communities have different requirements than old.
