This free course, Continuity and learning, has a practical and professional development focus. You will explore interactive dimensions of workplace learning: how people and workplace cultures create formal, informal, planned and unplanned opportunities to learn. You will read about 'biographical learning' research, where adults develop narratives to better understand key points of their learning lives. You will plan and carry out a brief, informal interview with a colleague, and your colleague will interview you, on themes of learning and work. To complete this OpenLearn course you will write a short draft of the key points of the interview and reflect on your own learning biography.
Course learning outcomes
After studying this course, you should be able to:
identify specific dimensions of workplace learning
understand the concept of biographical learning
plan and carry out an informal interview about lifelong learning.
This course first off would take you 2-3 hours being thorough with it so don't be daunted when it says 12. Would recommend this as it looks at different psychogical perspectives of learning as well as help evaluate yourself as a learner in a primary school setting.
