Course content

The course deals with adults' conditions for learning in working life, education, and society through analyses of the importance of learning for the individual, for companies, organisations and society. Conditions for learning is elucidated through perspectives, theories and models. These contribute with various frameworks that are used to understand and analyse conditions for learning. The frameworks elucidate conditions for learning through analyses of knowledge sharing in the workplace, the use of digital technology, motivation and learning, as well as reflection and the importance of experience. By developing a portfolio the student will work with relevant issues concerning conditions for learning and follow the different stages of a research process. This involves training of an analytical approach to practical situations in working life, education and society. When developing a portfolio the student will also practice reflection by using perspectives, theories and models.
