Paper Abstract:
|
This study will investigate how mobile Web 2.0 technologies support employees in the process of informal learning during work-related engagements in foreign investment enterprises (FIEs) in china. A multiple-case study will be conducted, with five participants chosen from different FIEs. This new way of learning is believed to benefit both individual employees as well as corporations in developing learning organizations. The study also enriches the research literature on mobile learning and adult learning in the workplace. |
