The relationship between organisation culture and learning is a critical one. The same considerations extend to elearning specifically. In the New Zealand context elearning is still a relatively new phenomenon.

Many organisations, and their people, will not have had widespread exposure to elearning provision. This places even greater importance on understanding how organisation culture and elearning depend upon, strengthen and influence each other.

As a starting point for identifying these issues we suggest Nichani’s article “Understanding Organisational Culture for Knowledge Sharing”.

This article is of particular interest when thinking about the collaborative aspects of  ’elearning 2.0′ which combine aspects of formal process and design principles with interaction reflecting  social networking experiences.
