Title
The planning, implementation and economics of the Knowledge Integration Server System for E-Learning (KISSEL)
Abstract
E-learning is about bringing education to people instead of bringing people to education. It involves the delivery of contents, courses and training via electronic media such as the Internet and intranet. E-Learning provides just-in-time training delivery as well as flexible access to lifelong learning. It can help organizations re-train their staff and motivate individuals to upgrade their skills with less disruption to work and family life. The Knowledge Integration Servers System for E-Learning (KISSEL) is a knowledge sharing platform for E-learning and sustainability sciences which is focused mainly on Asian-Pacific Countries. It is a kind of open source program to build and setup communities. The KISSEL online courseware management system was developed by the research group of the Ibaraki University, Japan. KISSEL can provide E-learning and information technology base training through its virtual platform. It is a student-centered E-learning environment that satisfies the learning-on-demand need of working with IT professionals, and reduces the learning time by assembling customized courses on demand to meet specific individual needs. The first server under this KISSEL project was established in Bandaranayke College, Gampaha, Sri Lanka in the year 2009.
