Abstract :
Today´s technology affords many new options to design and deliver educational and training content. However, the adoption rate, cost, features, and infrastructure supporting these technologies can inhibit e-learning effectiveness. This paper draws from the literature and from recent uses of e-learning technologies in engineering management courses to identify ways of teaching and learning more effectively
