Workplace Learning: A Literature Review
Vaughan, Karen
NZCER Press
As we move into being a knowledge society, the way an organisation learns can be key to its innovation and profitability. This literature review examines the nature of workplace learning, with a focus on nonprofessional occupations, including those closely associated with workplace training. It identifies the conditions that facilitate workplace learning and the teaching strategies and practices that work best. Vaughan gives examples from the literature and points to the advantages and dangers of workplace learning.
