Book Understanding and Promoting Transformative Learning

Download or read book Understanding and Promoting Transformative Learning written by Patricia Cranton and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-03 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The third edition of Patricia Cranton’s Understanding and Promoting Transformative Learning brings a wealth of new insight from the tremendous growth in the field during the decade since the previous edition. As in the previous editions, the book helps adult educators understand what transformative learning is, distinguish it from other forms of learning, and foster it in their practice. The first part of the book is dedicated to clarifying transformative learning theory and relating it to other theoretical frameworks. The author examines transformative learning from the learner’s perspective, and discusses individual differences in how learners go through the process. In the second half of the book, the focus is squarely on strategies for promoting transformative learning in a wide variety of adult and higher education contexts. Practitioners will be able to take ideas from the text and apply them directly in their teaching.Since 1975, transformative learning has become a core theoretical perspective in adult and higher education, and research has proliferated. In the past decade, adult education and especially transformative learning grew into a noticeably larger field. The numbers of undergraduate and graduate programs in adult education have increased and continue to increase as more and more individuals are seeking the expertise, skills, and training necessary to work with adult learners in higher education, business, industry, government, health professions, non-profit organizations, and community development. In addition, the number of programs in higher education (both undergraduate and graduate) that include courses in transformative learning has grown dramatically. These academic audiences use the book to further their understanding of transformative learning theory and practice.Drawing on the latest research as well as the author’s own teaching experience in both online and face-to-face courses, this new edition will be a vital resource for members of the transformative learning community, as well as those encountering the topic for the first time.

Book Doing Work Based Research

Download or read book Doing Work Based Research written by Carol Costley and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2010-03-25 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the growth of practitioner research, this book leads the way by addressing key issues faced by ‘insider researchers’ – those doing research projects in the organizations and communities in which they themselves work, or where they are already familiar with the setting. The authors explore the implications of these research contexts, and discuss approaches and methodologies that researchers in these contexts might adopt, with a particular focus on ethics - one of the key concerns for students undertaking a research project of this type.

Book Progettare le organizzazioni Le teorie e i modelli per decidere

Download or read book Progettare le organizzazioni Le teorie e i modelli per decidere written by Maurizio Decastri and published by goWare & Guerini Next. This book was released on 2020-05-08 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quali sono le competenze richieste a chi si appresta a organizzare persone e attività all’interno di un’azienda? Che cosa significa, nell’ambito di una pianificazione strategica così come della quotidianità aziendale, costruire un modello di organizzazione? Esistono teorie e, soprattutto, tecniche che consentono di intervenire in chiave progettuale nei meccanismi attorno ai quali si articola un disegno organizzativo. Chi si occupa di organizzazione potrà rintracciare, in questo manuale, gli strumenti per cimentarsi in una delle attività più comuni e al tempo stesso complesse e cruciali del management, attraverso l’analisi degli elementi sui quali si fondano le scelte e le caratteristiche di un assetto organizzativo. A partire dalla presentazione delle logiche classiche della progettazione, il testo si concentra poi sui concetti di base del disegno organizzativo contingency e conclude con una disamina delle scelte derivanti dai modelli contingenti evoluti, fornendo le principali linee guida per arrivare a disegnare una struttura. La seconda parte del manuale è invece dedicata alle teorie più recenti che si sono affacciate nell’universo disciplinare dell’Organizzazione aziendale, utili per comprendere il pensiero organizzativo «in formazione».
