Synopsis
Excerpt from Locating Adaptive Learning: The Situated Nature of Adaptive Learning in Organizations
Data for this study were gathered from two projects involving the introduction of new production machines into factory contexts. The introduction and subsequent adaptation of new production equipment in the manufacturing plant provides a rich context in which to study organizational adaptive learning. Unexpected problems are common, and adaptation is important both for developing new technical solutions, and for clarifying previously undefined cause and effect relationships (rosenberg, 1982; leonard-barton, Further, interaction among multiple organizational actors (principally manufacturing engineers who work in the lab, and users who work in the manufacturing context) has been shown to be important for diagnosing and resolving errors with new process equipment (tyre and Hauptman.

Locating Adaptive Learning (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the nature of adaptive learning processes in organizations and elucidates the role of situated learning and how it affects organizational learning. The author analyzes the process of problem-solving around new manufacturing equipment, highlighting the iterative process of investigation and adaptation that occurs between different organizational settings: the physical plant and the lab. The author finds that adaptation is a situated process, in that: 1. Different organizational settings (1) contain different kinds of clues about the underlying issues, (2) expose learners to different ideas, and (3) offer different resources for generating and analyzing information. Consequently, actors frequently must move in an iterative fashion between different organizational settings before identifying the causal underpinnings of a problem and selecting suitable solutions. The author concludes that theories of adaptive learning should also take into account how actors (both collectively and individually) use their surroundings to understand events, and how these surroundings affect the social interactions that unfold. This book adds a new dimension to the literature on adaptive learning processes, which currently focuses almost exclusively on social knowledge exchange (via discussion, argument, and collaborative sensemaking). This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332268306_0
