- Information
Description
Today, more people want to know how to make a meaningful difference to what they care about.
But for that, traditional approaches to learning often fall short.
In this book, we offer a theoretical and practical way forward.
We introduce the concept of social learning spaces for developing both new capabilities and a sense of agency.
We provide a rich framework for focusing on the value of social learning spaces: how to generate this value, monitor it, and learn iteratively through the process.
The book is a useful extension and refinement of 'communities of practice' for those familiar with the theory.
For those who are not, the chapters will lay out a new way to approach learning.
This volume is written to serve the needs of readers across fields, including researchers, educators, and leaders in business, government, healthcare, and international development.
