Rupa, Manish dobbed me in, so I’ll ‘attend’. It appears what I need to do is just blog the topic, and send you the link. Let me know if there’s anything else you think I should do. –

Thanks for being the May host, Rupa. I want to remind your readers that “work at learning; learning at work” is meant as a very large tent… posts that talk in any way about how people go about consciously handling their own learning, or about how people learn in the workplace, are the things we encourage.

I can’t agree with you more, Rupa. Having to sit through multi-day face to face training in orientation is about as grueling (though not as enteratining) as a scene from the BBC’s Office series. I too am a digital immigrant, but I would rather receive training online then have both a discussion session with a mentor and other new hires to field my questions. I wouldn’t mind a short recap of the key points from the online training. In addition to that being connected with a ‘work buddy’ who can meet with me periodically to make sure I’m getting the right information and resources as well as ask questions about my integration would be more helpful. But I think that as long as the training field is dominated by those who feel more comfortable with face to face training… employees are probably going to have to endure long f2f training cram sessions.

Comment on How Learning Happens at Work by Viplav Baxi

Great post, Rupa! You have hit upon so many of the issues we all understand and grapple with in our workplaces. It is a chaotic constellation of personalities, techniques/tools and processes that we deal with. Learning is probabilistic today and shall remain so because of the number of variables involved. It would be great to try and apply chaos theories and see if we can discover learning patterns that are generally applicable in the workplace.

Hi Rupa,

It was really very interesting to know how learning happens at work place. Though there are people who learn by experimenting and by their own mistakes, an instructor led training has its own role. One major benefit of classroom learning is that you can learn from others questions to the instructor and classroom participation.

Thanks,

Chaitanya.
