THE BUSINESS COMMUNICATION COURSE AND THE MOODLE FRAMEWORK SYSTEM

ABSTRACT

In this article I will argue that the use of learning content management systems is also justified in full-time education, especially in business education and communication studies. Nowadays not only multinational companies, but domestic medium enterprises also manage the training of new employees and existing staff with LCMSs. Companies in Hungary’s financial sector are cutting edge in the development of electronic learning objects, and base employees’ training on these new technologies.  That is why it is extremely important for students to get acquainted with learning management systems and other web-based applications as tools that support the learning process and also as sites of communication. I will present the business communication Moodle course, which was introduced to international business and commerce and marketing studies in the 2010/2011 academic year. I want to present the wide range of web2.0 applications that can be used to explore the fields of business communication.
