学习型组织企业文化的塑造

学习型组织企业文化的塑造是培育企业核心竞争力的关键即将到来的知识经济时代是一个强调变化和速度的时代,它的基本特征就是知识和信息的生产以几何级数增长。在这个以知识资本为基础的社会中,企业之间的竞争不再仅是资本、现有技术和人才存量的竞争,而是企业学习力的竞争,即员工和组织学习动力、学习毅力和学习能力的竞争。彼得·圣吉在《第五项修炼》一     

21世纪人力资源管理的新方向——学习型组织述评

学习型组织是一种面向21世纪崭新的人力资源管理理论或模式。它采用系统动力学的方法检讨了我们以往的学习观及管理体制。它更加重视管理的心理化,在管理中更具新优势,并以自我超越、心智模式、共同愿景、团体学习、系统思考五种策略构建了我们21世纪人力资源管理的新方向。学习型组织有以下几个特点：管理者要起协调、激励和支持作用;以自主管理为导向;有很强的自我学习能力;重视管理中的时间和速度。     

学习力——学习型组织的真谛

一、学习力三要素学习力是由三个要素组成的。这三个要素分别是学习的动力、学习的毅力和学习的能力。学习的动力体现了学习的目标;学习的毅力反映了学习者的意志;学习的能力则来源于学习者掌握的知识及其在实践中的应用。一个人、一个组织是否有很强的学习力,完全取决于这个人、这个组织是否有明确的奋斗目标、坚强的意志和丰富的理论知识以及大量的实践经验。上图是学习力的模型。这个模型揭示了学习力和其三要素的内在联系。这个模型告诉我们,学习力是其三个要素的交集,只有同时具备了三要素,才能成为真正的学习力。当你有了努力的目标,…     

学习型组织理论在教师群体中的适用条件分析

美国《财富》杂志在1970年曾公布全球500家大企业的排行榜，到了80年代，原来榜上有名的企业却有三分之一销声匿迹。有人分析说，这些企业的落伍是因为其“智障”妨碍了自身的发展．也就是由于不注重学习而延滞了发展。因此，不少有识之士把提高企业的学习能力视为企业发展的根本出路。由此我们得到一个启示：     

学习力与文化力——企业生存与持续发展的无形支柱

相对于构成企业组织系统的躯干要素的正式组织结构和经营管理制度来说,学习力与文化力则是构成企业组织系统的无形支柱,学习力是企业的生命所在,而文化力是企业灵魂体现。没有企业组织躯干系统,学习力与文化力将无从谈起,正所谓“皮之不存,毛将焉附”;缺乏学习力的企业必将为竞争大潮和风云变幻的世界所淘汰;而失去文化力的企业尤如没有灵魂的肉体,无法形成强大的凝聚力、向心力和战斗力。未来企业要实现生存与持续发展关键是要达到三者的有机结合。     

学习力与文化力——企业生存与持续发展的无形支柱

相对于正式的组织结构和经营管理制度而言,学习力与文化力是构成企业组织系统的无形支柱。学习力是企业的生命所在,而文化力是企业的灵魂体现。缺乏学习力的企业好比一个存在智力障碍的个体,必将为竞争大潮和风云变幻的世界所淘汰;而失去文化力的企业尤如没有灵魂的肉体,无法形成强大的凝聚力、向心力和战斗力。

提升组织学习力:我国企业教育的新目标

多年来,我国的企业教育主要是一种强制性、适应性的职业性教育。它只满足企业一时的对员工知识、技能的需要,但对企业的长期、稳定、协调发展难以给予强有力的支持。随着科技的迅猛发展和市场竞争的日益激烈,以开发人力资源为核心的企业教育越来越受到人们的重视,并已成为企业经营不可或缺的组成部分,成为企业发展的“秘密武器”。因此,提升组织学习力,必将成为我国企业教育的新目标。     

What action learning is not in the twenty-first century

This article is about what action learning is in the twenty-first century. In 1983 Reg Revans explained how action learning differed from seven phenomena with which it had been confused. This article explores how action learning differs from seven further phenomena with which it is currently confused. The article details similarities and differences between action learning and self-directed teams, coaching, focus groups, action research, seminars, problem-based learning and experiential learning.     

Emotions are the experiential glue of learning environments in the 21st century

This article comments on the five papers published in this special issue on understanding and measuring emotions in technology-rich learning environments. The articles identify a number of emotions that frequently occur in digital learning environments across different tasks, goals, populations, and subject matters. The Control Value Theory of achievement emotions unifies the research reported in the articles, whereas social emotions surface in contexts where there are significant social interactions, such as group learning or the training of medical students. The emotions that were detected and tracked in the reported studies rely on self-reports of learners and judges who observe them. This commentary identifies a number of limitations of the studies that will hopefully stimulate future research. Researchers are encouraged to collect (1) larger sample sizes, (2) longer interventions with learning technologies, (3) physiological, multimodal, and behavioral signatures of emotions to complement the subjective judgments, (4) more precise timing and transitions between emotions to uncover emotion dynamics, (5) assessments of nonlinear relations between variables, and (6) interventions designed to regulate and productively respond to learner emotions.     

Teaching in the 21 century

One of the hottest topics in higher education today is distance or distributed education (DE)—whether to get into it or not, whether it's as good as traditional in-class education or not, what forms of DE are better than others, whether it's a threat to faculty or not, and more. This paper addresses making sure DE efforts meet the course objectives and the students needs by working through five DE components: defining the students, defining the faculty, defining the curriculum, describing needed support systems, and understanding the environment created (ethical, aesthetic, cultural, and hidden aspects). Careful consideration of these five components will help ensure a successful DE program with positive experiences for faculty and students alike, and assure you readiness to embrace teaching in the 21^st century.     

The social practice of learning: a craft for the 21st century

This article argues that the social practice of learning (SPL), involving life-long learning, meta-learning, deep reflection, and dialogue in a community, should be the distinguishing knowledge base of schools in the twenty-first century. This article also analyses the strategies and challenges of the recent education reforms in Singapore through the lens of an SPL education paradigm. Although the Singapore government has done much to train teachers, trim syllabi and introduce new ways of teaching and learning, such as project work, the real challenge is to go beyond the provision of structural changes to the substance of the epistemological reform.

在不同的历史阶段，社会生产力呈现出不同的质态。网络生产力以互联网和信息交换为依托，表现为劳动资料的网络化、劳动的网络化与劳动对象的网络化，呈现出技术传播的全球化、经济的数字化与虚拟化的特点。网络生产力的运动具有全球此、多层次性、多向度、虚拟化的持点。同其他生产力质态一样，网络生产力具有生命周期，而推动网络生产力发展的是新技术、新材料的出现和广泛的运用。网络生产力的质态构成与发展动力说明网络生产力将成为21世纪先进生产力的主体。     

Teaching and learning online: a correspondence education for the 21st century?

In this paper, the author reflects on his first experience of tutoring on an online course. He compares online courses with their classroom and distance learning equivalents, from the point of view of both tutors and learners. This leads to a consideration of the multiple roles of the online tutor and how they can be acquired. The paper ends with an appraisal of some of the risks and drawbacks of online courses.

Designing for 21st century learning online: a heuristic method to enable educator learning support roles

With the growing emphasis on developing 21st century skills among today’s youth, there is continued optimism about the possibilities granted by increasing access to networked technologies, particularly for encouraging youth to pursue their interests and take ownership of their learning. Yet, research demonstrates the importance of adult support in realizing the promise of achieving these outcomes. Designers of such systems are thus faced with the need to create youth-centered spaces that also provide adult facilitation of learning. This paper presents an adaptation of the traditional heuristic evaluation method which provides designers of online learning systems with a holistic view of how adult learning support is enabled across the system. We describe how the heuristic evaluation method was adapted, and through a case example analyzing one online social learning system used in a middle school context, we demonstrate how it can be used to help identify areas for improvement and promising areas for further research. We also present a framework of heuristics which reflect specific educator learning support roles that have been found to be important for youth learning, particularly for supporting 21st century skills. This work contributes a novel heuristic evaluation method that can help designers of online learning platforms attend not only the experiences of learners, but also to how educators are enabled to support their learning.
