This book's unique perspective stems from its “knowledge
diamond” framework to examine how individuals, communities,
organizations and host industries reciprocally influence each other
in the course of knowledge work.
- This highly topical book focuses on work-based projects as a
focus for organizational learning.
- Establishes the link between individual, community,
organization and industry learning.
- Suggests that organizations need to recognise and understand
this link if they are to capitalize on project-based
learning.
- Incorporates material on project-based learning in virtual
communities.
- Refers to different examples, such as the film industry, the
software industry and the boat building industry.
- Includes end-of-chapter questions provoking reflection and discussion.
