E-learning from knowledge and experience capture in design

To retain a competitive edge, many companies have forced to move towards a knowledge-based economy and to recognise the importance of the ability to transfer the knowledge from those who have it to those who need it. In the design community where its activities are knowledge-intensive, the need to capture design knowledge for effective reuse seems crucial, particularly because of the dynamic nature of the design. There is no clear theory of how designers design and how their design process has been developed. It is therefore important to develop the knowledge support tools in parallel to how designers work and how they will use the tools. The goal of this paper is to provide a selective overview of the current e-learning approaches to knowledge-based support in the design practice.
