It covers the following key points in 3 sentences: Social learning theory posits that learning is a social and participatory process, rooted in social practices and identity formation rather than separate environments. Effective design of organizations for learning involves balancing interventions around meaning, time, space and power and developing infrastructures for engagement, imagination and alignment. The document outlines a framework for designing participative learning environments and discusses challenges around conceptualizing design without a product or outcome.
