Abstract
Purpose
The use of e-learning in the workplace is increasing. This increase was mainly because of technological advancement within corporations, but the COVID-19 pandemic has further reinforced this trend. User acceptance is central to e-learning’s success; hence, this study aims to investigate workplace e-learning acceptance in Indonesia.
Design/methodology/approach
Using the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) model, this study analyzed survey response data from employees in seven Indonesian industries that use e-learning for their corporate learning programs. The study combined partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) analysis with fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) to gain symmetrical and asymmetrical perspectives.
Findings
Various combinations of UTAUT model-based antecedents in pursuing workplace e-learning acceptance were supported by the PLS-SEM and fsQCA results. Both analyses point to performance expectancy as the strongest predictor of intention to use e-learning.
Research limitations/implications
The study offers insight into the causal relationship between constructs in the UTAUT model and uncovers paths and combinations of constructs that lead to e-learning intention.
Originality/value
This study highlights complex causalities between constructs.

Abstract
Purpose
This paper reflects on a semester-long psychology and organizational behaviour course in an Indonesian business school. The course applied a flipped classroom (FC) approach combined with an experiential learning (EL) project that empowered students to work closely with local communities.
Design/methodology/approach
This study compares students' final scores from an FC and EL class with students from other classes who used the traditional lecture method. Focus group interviews were conducted to gain insight into the students' experience.
Findings
The study results show that FC-EL students achieved higher final scores than traditional-learning students. The majority of students also reported having positive views regarding the approach, with a minority opposing the learning method. The students' projects were successfully implemented, empowered local communities and fostered reflexivity in the students.
Research limitations/implications
The school has yet to implement FC and EL as course delivery methods in other courses. Therefore, the positive outcomes achieved in this study were obtained from only a single course.
Originality/value
The course combined flipped classroom and experiential learning methods.

Abstract
Purpose
The development of teaching methods in the field of entrepreneurship education is a challenge for academics to achieve “real active learning.” This paper aims to investigate the effectiveness of learning experience through internship program at start-ups. This paper examines the benefits and challenges from stakeholders' experiences and perspectives (business students, start-ups and universities). The authors focus on the entrepreneurial values obtained by exploring start-up processes, culture and work environments.
Design/methodology/approach
This study uses qualitative research with a case study approach by applying experiential learning. The objects of this research are students of the School of Business and Management and start-ups in Indonesia. This study divides the pilot program of internship at start-ups into three stages, designing process, execution and evaluation. The analysis technique uses an interpretive approach from interviews and observations of internships based on experiential learning.
Findings
The results showed that the internship program at start-ups in this study has benefits for all major stakeholders, especially students. The results of student learning experiences show that start-ups' characteristics such as a creative work environment, egalitarian work culture and dynamic workflow flexibility can increase their professional and moral values.
Research limitations/implications
This study has several limitations, including the internship program designed in this study, which is still raw and has several shortcomings. Time series in testing experiential learning is another limitation. For further study, it is necessary to conduct longitudinal research to measure the effectiveness of the start-ups' internship program.
Originality/value
This study provides new insights on experiential learning in developing an internship program at a start-up as an effort to increase entrepreneurial value for business students. This study highlights the possibility that an internship program at a start-up will have an impact on students' entrepreneurial values and competencies.
