본 연구에서는 개 방, 참여, 공유를 기 본 가치로 하는 Web 2.0의 대표적 트렌드인 UCC(User Created Contents)를 e-Learning에 접목하여 비즈니스 모델 설계시 고려해야 할 사항들을 분석하였다. 현재 초중등은 물론 대학, 직장, 평생교육의 주류를 형성하고 있는 것은 e-Learning이다. 그러나 기존 e-Learning 모델들은 콘텐츠의 다양성 미흡, 감성의 부재, 흥미 부족 등 해결하기 어려운 문제들을 가지고 있다. 이에 기존 e-Learning 모델의 단점들을 보완해 줄 수 있는 UCC의 개념을 통합함으로써 교육효과를 극대화하고 교육 주체자들의 교육활동을 보다 편리하게 도와줄 수 있을 것이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 교육 주체자들이 제작한 콘텐츠를 Web2.0 플랫폼에 적용하여 참여와 공유를 이끌어 내고 궁극적으로 교육효과를 극대화 할 수 있는 비즈니스 모델을 설계시 고려해야 할 사항을 분석하여 제시하였다.

The development of information technologies has contributed on-line training as one of important education methods. On-line training in firms, which is similar to e-learning or virtual education, provides trainees with more education opportunities in diverse ways. It has developed a range of innovative services with a one-stop solution of education within the electronic sector. Also under the on-line training environment, trainees can undertake customized training packages at anytime and any places. Moreover, information technology allows both the trainers and other trainees to be decoupled in any of the elements of tune, place, and space. Two research questions are investigated : what are the determinants affecting the on-line training effectiveness and how those variables affect the two aspects of training effectiveness: learning performance and transfer performance. Based on the previous literature conducted on the traditional training environment, the determinants of training effectiveness are derived. Eight hypotheses are developed based on literature reviews and tested by questionnaires survey data. The collected data have been analyzed by LISREL. It is found that the relationship between individual, organizational and on-line site design variables and training effectiveness (learning and transfer) are significant. The contribution and limitations of this research are also discussed with future studies.
