Designing capacity-building in e-learning expertise: Chal-

چکیده
This research study looks at how organizations in developing countries perceive the challenge of building capacity in e-learning expertise. Data was collected on six such organizations, and a range of perceived rationales and constraints were identified. The paper hypothesizes a four-part framework to define the e-learning capacity gaps that these circumstances appear to represent: the “instructional design capacity gap”, the “production capacity gap”, the “tutorial capacity gap” and the “community building gap”. The framework is used to re-examine the data to explore the ways in which the organizations’ e-learning activities might constitute strategic responses to the hypothesized capacity gaps.

متن کاملPolicy Capacity in the Learning Healthcare System; Comment on “Health Reform Requires Policy Capacity”
Pierre-Gerlier Forest and his colleagues make a strong argument for the need to expand policy capacity among healthcare actors. In this commentary, I develop an additional argument in support of Forest et al view. Forest et al rightly point to the need to have embedded policy experts to successfully translate healthcare reform policy into healthcare change. Translation of externally generated i...
