Abstract
This article explores the question of what suggestions can be gained from the combination of knowledge management (WM) and e-learning for the composition of teaching content in media didactic training courses. The starting point is the requirements that companies in particular place on graduates who plan and design teaching/learning environments with new information and communication technology (ICT) media for adults. The considerations are structured according to the four areas of the e-learning reference model: strategy, methods and processes, systems and technologies, and management of change. On the one hand, it is derived from this comprehensive understanding of e-learning that it is important for those working in media didactics to know this overall picture and to develop at least an understanding, if not competences, in all these task areas. On the other hand, the e-learning reference model is suitable as an outline for examining in which areas knowledge management represents a broadening of horizons for e-learning.
