This document discusses work-based learning and general competencies. It presents a mindmap of key competencies like information processing, communication, interpersonal skills, and problem-solving. It then provides more details on each competency. It describes five informal ways people learn in organizations using technologies like email, conversations, blogs, articles, and social networks. It states that modern technologies facilitate learning through sight and hearing and become extensions of ourselves. The document was produced by Margarita Teresevičienė and Egidijus Jaras as part of an Erasmus+ project on open professional collaboration and innovation.

Incidental

learning
There are the five simple informal
ways that people learn in the
organization using technologies:
email; in-person conversations; read
blog posts, online articles; search
the social web using search engines
(solve problems); connect with
others in public social networks or
in private groups or communities.
These are all relatively simple and
fairly inexpensive things that are
used in workplace learning.
The way that learning, particularly
sight and hearing, are facilitated
through modern technologies is
such that the instruments and
machines that we use cannot be
treated simply as tools or as objects
for consciousness. Technologies
become extension of us.
