Double Loop Learning in Work based Settings II

Learning a profession is much more for a student than the mere memorization of facts. Learning to be professional within a particular profession can only take place within that profession. This talk describes research into work based learning and especially the feedback that students in work based settings can give on common theories and their application to practical problems. To foster this exchange of information we evaluated three tools:

  • The e-Journal of Practical Business Research which publishes academic papers on work based experiences.
  • A wiki which publishes work based experiences in the form of micro articles.
  • Wikipedia as a means to use work based experiences in order to increase the common body of knowledge.

The “Open” concept aims at two directions: to make knowledge openly available and to open the provision of knowledge to people who have been considered pure consumers before. The talk is concerned with the later.
