Work process knowledge (WPK) is a kind of knowledge that is constructed in the workplace and can be used directly at work. It is a synthesis of theoretical knowledge with experiential knowledge gained on the job. Many efforts have been made to support work-learning activities by exploiting various potentials of information and communication technologies in an educational context. However, existing approaches and e-learning environments provide insufficient support for acquiring work process knowledge. This paper proposes an advanced approach to make it easy and helpful to acquire work process knowledge in the school through conducting a blended work-process-oriented curriculum. Through developing an exemplar work-process-oriented curriculum 'the development of power-distribution systems' with an integrated remote power-distribution work environment, it has been demonstrated that this technical approach is feasible. Through an investigation it was reported that such an approach of learning is helpful for constructing work process knowledge. © 2020 IEEE.
