Developing eLearning in Dialogue – Institut für Lern-Innovation

The DELID project was conceived on the basis that the use of e-learning still remains at a very low level in SMEs, despite a great number of developments in e-learning methodology and/or offers and an equally impressive number of initiatives within the last years. "E-learning" most commonly also entails a user-oriented didactic approach, meaning that a course simply has to correspond best to the learners' needs. Moreover it has to fit into the specific organizational context.

DELID is setting up a very intensive dialogue between e-learning providers and SMEs, using measures like interviews, storytelling, tests and meeting. The DELID project is developing a methodology for e-learning courses for small and medium-sized enterprises. This is accomplished by means of a very close and dialogue-oriented collaboration with SMEs. Existing e-learning-offers are adapted on the basis of the results of this dialogue. In an integrated step-by-step process, a theoretical model will be derived from this dialogue and from experience gained from practical work, and will influence the actual adaptation of e-learning courses vice-versa, by means of structuring the work and supplying it with a deepened theoretical perspective.

Thus the project will result in new e-learning offers that are perfectly adapted to the needs of the SMEs included in the project, and a methodology which describes how other e-learning courses can be adapted to better fit the needs of SMEs in general.
