Abstract: | This paper deals with Problem-Based Learning (PBL) as a mediating factor in generating a variety of learning (here as: l-g.) networks in workplace contexts. It is argued that informal l-g. in experiential circumstances can be systematized to encourage deep l-g. at the individual and collective level. Given the distinct problem-solving opportunities in PBL, learners can increases their capacity to acquire net knowledge through self-inquiry, reflection and dialogue. The repositioning of l-g. attitudes also leads to an enlargement of communities of practice (CoPs). An integrated model is proposed to explain the dynamics of PBL within workplace contexts. |
