Description

Thesis (MBA)--Stellenbosch University, 2000. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT:
The information technology revolution has not really impacted the core processes
of learning and teaching in business schools. Business schools stand in stark
contrast to organisations where IT forms the new infrastructure for
communication, decision-making, product development and service delivery. In
this context, advanced and emerging information technologies are increasingly
viewed as a key resource in enabling new and effective learning process. and
educational innovations. The study introduces an interactive computer-mediated
learning system designed for the field of People and Change Management that,
whilst interacting with the student, also integrates seamlessly with traditional
information sources. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING:
Die informasie tegnologie revolusie het nog nie regtig 'n groot impak op die kern
prosesse van leer en onderwysing in besigheidskole gemaak nie. Besigheidskole
staan in skerp kontras met organisasies waar IT die nuwe infrastruktuur vorm vir
kommunikasie, besluitneming, produk ontwikkeling en dienslewering. In hierdie
konteks word gevorderde en ontwikkelende informasie tegnologieë gesien as al
hoe meer van kern belang in die daarstelling van nuwe en effektiewe leer
prosesse en onderwys innovasie. Die studie boekstaaf die ontwikkeling van 'n
rekenaar model om hierdie probleem aan te spreek in die veld van Menslike
Hulpbronne en Veranderingsbestuur. Die impak is tweeledig van aard, die
daarstelling van 'n interaktiewe leer proses, sowel as integrasie met tradisionele
inligting bronne.
