Human resource management encompasses activities related to managing an organization's workforce, including recruiting, selecting, developing, and compensating employees. Theories of HRM have evolved over time from a classical focus on tasks and control to a humanistic focus on relationships and participation. Modern HRM theories aim to integrate concerns for both production and people. Key humanistic theories include human relations theory based on the Hawthorne Studies, Barnard's emphasis on communication and cooperation, and McGregor's Theory Y of positive human motivation. Human resources theory, including Likert's systems model and Blake and Mouton's managerial grid, further developed these ideas.
Reflective practice in the professional contextTrish Bradwell
Reflection has its origins in ancient philosophy and is an important part of human development and learning. The purpose of reflection is to improve professional practice by critically examining experiences. It requires skills like self-awareness, open-mindedness, and honesty. Reflection leads to personal and professional growth as practitioners gain insight, make changes, and improve their competence over time. Different models emphasize aspects like critical analysis, planned change, and reflecting both during and after experiences. Overall reflection is a valuable tool for practitioners to continuously learn and enhance their skills.

Brookfield's Theory of Reflection proposes that critical reflection is essential for effective teaching and learning. The theory recommends using four lenses for reflection: autobiography as learners, students' eyes, colleagues' perceptions, and theoretical literature. Implications for learners include a more engaging learning experience, opportunity for self-expression, and stronger teacher-student relationships. While the theory fosters deliberation among stakeholders and emphasizes learning over teaching, critics argue it can be time-consuming and potentially damage relationships if not implemented carefully. The presenters justify their selection of the theory by arguing reflection is vital for holistic development and links to existing knowledge, and that examining its strengths and weaknesses provides opportunities.
This document summarizes a study on factors that influence teachers' professional development at work. The study used questionnaires to examine how organizational and task factors relate to teachers' participation in learning activities and development of occupational expertise. Regression analysis found that reflection/feedback activities were predicted by work pressure, social support from colleagues, and value of tasks. Collaboration was predicted by work pressure, social support from colleagues/supervisor, and tasks beyond teaching. The study concludes schools must organize support for teacher learning.
The document discusses the concept development model, which involves building general understandings from specific examples. It describes concept development as acquiring vocabulary through concepts and extending knowledge by refining information in "filing cabinets" that represent concepts. The key steps in concept development are listing associated items, grouping like items, labeling groups, regrouping items under other concepts, and forming generalizations. Teachers can structure and implement concept development lessons flexibly based on student groupings and pacing.
This document discusses using blogs to promote reflective practice among teaching staff in higher education. It describes how reflection helps evaluate and improve teaching by enabling teachers to critically examine their experiences and plan future actions. The authors implemented a blogging tool with teaching staff and collected data through surveys and interviews to study how blogs supported reflective practice. Their findings provide implications for using blogs as a tool to scaffold the development of teaching practice through reflection.
This document discusses supporting students in developing skills for collaborative group work. It emphasizes establishing structured processes, providing guidance and feedback, and intentionally forming diverse and accountable groups. Key aspects of effective group work include positive interdependence, face-to-face interaction, individual accountability, interpersonal skills, and group processing. Teachers should clearly define objectives, monitor groups, and evaluate individual contributions to develop students' collaboration abilities.
Action research is a cyclical process of posing questions, gathering data through action and reflection, and using results to decide on further action. It involves practitioners systematically evaluating their own practices to improve outcomes. The process typically includes planning an action, implementing it, observing results, and reflecting to inform future planning. Groups that use action research include educators researching ways to engage students, and religious and community groups planning interventions.
This document provides an introduction to educational research for teachers. It discusses why teachers should engage in research to continually improve practice, outlines key research concepts like different types of knowledge and validity and reliability, and introduces action research as a practical approach for teachers. The document emphasizes that research does not require teachers to be experts, but rather encourages an inquisitive approach to better understand how to enhance teaching and learning.

This document discusses a research study on how Chinese and South Korean young adults use their participation in religious communities to help them adjust to studying in higher education in the United States. The researchers conducted ethnographic research including observations and interviews at two Christian churches. Preliminary findings show that the churches provided emotional, practical, and spiritual support serving as a point of connection and boundary. They helped with language challenges and provided a sense of family and community for exploration and application of knowledge, including academic topics. Differences were seen between undergraduate and graduate students and how Asian and American cultures influenced relationships.
This article aims to examine the government-centered lifelong learning model of South Korea using two representative lenses of lifelong learning: Nordic and neoliberal models. By investigating the socio-economic and political backgrounds of lifelong learning in South Korea, we address how South Korea has developed an original lifelong learning model that differs from both the Nordic and the neoliberal models. Our examination implies that South Korea’s lifelong learning model in its provisions, networks, and inclusion policy requires discernment for promoting better social equity and democratic participation, especially for underrepresented citizens.

This document outlines key concepts around participation and knowledge from a situated perspective. It discusses how participation in a community involves the purposes, norms and challenges of the moment's activity, the tools used including technology and languages, and the community's history, assumptions and relationships. Through interaction and joint action, knowledge is constructed but is not absolute or fixed, and depends on what is relevant, meaningful and useful for the community. Knowledge is not portable or static, but is transformed and reinvented as it spreads between communities. Educators should consider what constitutes meaningful participation in a given community and how issues of gender, power, race and class influence whose knowledge is prioritized.
This document summarizes a study examining workplace learning and innovation in new enterprises. It discusses key concepts around innovation including the creative process, levels of innovation (micro and macro), rhythms of innovation (episodic and continuous), and magnitudes of creative change (adaptive and generative). The study analyzed 109 entrepreneurs from service-based businesses with 2-5 staff members. It aimed to understand what conditions foster innovative learning and the forms/processes of innovation learning. Key findings were that supervision vs freedom, compelling social purpose, recognition, generating multiple ideas, optimization, problem-solving, and self-confidence supported innovative learning.
This document summarizes key findings from the 2006 study "Hiding in Plain Sight: Higher Education Pink and Blue Collar Staff Experiences as Returning Adult Learners, Workers, and Family Members" by Susan J. Bracken and Jeanie K. Allen. The study examined the experiences of non-faculty staff at universities who were also returning adult students. It found that these staff felt overlooked, unrecognized, and undervalued in their roles. Taking on student roles improved their self-esteem and excitement but also created challenges with managing work, school, and family responsibilities. Their work environments were sometimes unsupportive and coworkers were unaware of educational policies.
