Workplace Learning for Changing Social and Economic Circumstances by Helen Bound

Workplace Learning for Changing Social and Economic Circumstances by Helen Bound

This book brings together a range of socio-cultural perspectives to examine digitalisation, identity, work design, and affordances for learning, mediated by the ecosystems within which work, and the workplace is positioned. An appealing resource for researchers, academics, adult educators, and human resource personnel.

'This collection, curated by internationally renowned academics, brings together contributions from world-leading scholars to identify, theorise, evidence and illuminate the pressing contemporary challenges in workplace learning and vocational education and training researchThis highly recommended book offers researchers, policymakers and practitioners in different countries a refreshing range of perspectives and insights that will enrich and augment their own interests and work.'

Alison Fuller, Professor of Vocational Education and Work, University College London, UK

'This is a refreshing book for where human intervention increasingly shapes and conflates the socio-cultural and environmental spheres. The contributing authors problematise central workplace learning themes within this context of uncertainty in which participants act both as agents and supplicants within such theoretically and practice-based informed spaces as digitisation, shifting identities, group collaboration, increasing knowledge and skill complexity, and rapidly changing definitions of work. The book is a ‘must-read’ for researchers, educators and policy makers.'

Peter Rushbrook, Adjunct Associate Professor (VET), Charles Sturt University
