Online Learning and Blended Learning in Vocational Education

Short Description

This study aims to explore the current status of e-learning use in vocational training institutions in South Korea and institutions’ intent to adopt e-learning and blended learning for their sessions. A total of 116 online survey responses from instructors and administrators in vocational training institutions were used for analysis. The results showed that the e-learning content that is necessary for vocational training in South Korea is National Competency Standards-based content, content that reflects the latest technology, small module-type content, and practice-enhancing content. Interactive e-learning content and effective evaluation for e-learning could also help facilitate the use of e-learning in vocational training institutions as supplementary class material and blended learning material. Suggestions for practitioners and researchers are provided on the basis of the results.
