SEE: a portal to promote project based and organizational learning

Adapting the independent and project based learning requires real life projects for the students to work on. Such projects require strong support and participation from the local community. However, a mechanism has to be proposed and established to bring about an integral relationship between higher education institutes and the local community. Issues about the relations between information technology (IT) and organizational learning are becoming more critical as IT is becoming a focal point in organizations, Technology (especially information systems) can help achieve effective organizational learning hence improving organizational performance, This paper proposes the SEE project, which is a web portal that strengthens the ties between higher education institutes and the local community, Students would propose and implement ideas to be sponsored by local organizations, or implement a posted project by an organization with the approval of their instructor based on course objectives.
