Creation of the reusable learning content in the process of work is a challenging but promising trend in e-learning and knowledge management. While the main research focus nowadays is concentrated on the extraction of the tacit knowledge and experience using wikis and blogs, the fact is ignored that a lot of useful process-relevant information already exists on the web or in the enterprise document management systems (DMS) and needs to be brushed up and integrated into processembedded learning scenarios. The proposed approach helps knowledge workers to transform documents found on the web and in the enterprise DMS into reusable learning objects and make them available for adaptive workplace learning.
