Some food for thought from Brigitte Jordan
“Changing mental models and paradigms from a focus on training to a focus on learning involves a series of moves:
from individual learner
to learners in social settings
from individual skills
to the practices of a team or COP
from process orientation
to practice orientation
from didactic teaching
to activity-based learning
from linear thinking
to systems thinking
from school-based learning
to learning as a life activity
from one-shot learning
to continuous adaptation
from curriculum
to total learning environment
from top-down information dissemination
to lateral networks + peer communication
from product focus
to customer focus
from design from fantasy
to design from work practice
from requirements analysis
to work practice analysis
from implementation as delivery
to implementation as growing the practice
from providing training
to providing learning resources
from what employers want
to what frontline practitioners need”

I’m still reflecting but an initial message that has stayed with me;
“Think big, start small, move fast” Mark Oelhert

I listened to this presentation about responsive open learning environments (ROLE project ) at WOLCE.
The presentation and aims of the ROLE project seem to suggest that informal learning, personal learning environments and people can be controlled.
Yes it’s important to measure performance but for me, trying to capture and control the journeys, environments and learning of individuals is not the best way to do this.
Any thoughts?
