Abstract
Technology has permeated work with major implications
for the way in which industrial psychologists
conceptualise and assess performance. It has also resulted
in a need to design training programs to facilitate transfer
and promote ongoing new learning. This talk will briefly
outline a model of performance, and show how
technology links with it. Dilemmas involved in designing
training to facilitate transfer and learning will be
reviewed, and ideas suggested for ways in which
technology can be used as an aid to performance, learning
and the transfer of knowledge. The emphasis throughout
will be on relevant principles from cognitive psychology.
