What is the agile learning concept?
● learning happens all the time
● learning happens whether you organise it or not
● agile learning provides just enough information at the
right time and in the right context
● information>knowledge>skills through learning

Abstract
Concrete
A whole new field of learning
facilitation
● just in time
● in context - part of workflow
● good enough [solves the problem]
● iterative
Agile learning is….
● Just in time
● Just where I need it
● Just enough
Heuristics and reflection
● heuristics - devising a solution that is less than optimal
● reflective practice develops what WOULD have been
the optimal solution for use next time
Social
● approval of solutions provided
● sharing of other ideas/ solutions in a
‘community’
● favourite/ like/ re-tweet/ direct messages
● capacity for personal development
grow the knowledge community
NOT the knowledge base/ intellectual capital/
etc etc etc
Technology enables and enhances agile
learning: industrial/ manufacturing
● video and animation - with hyper labelling
● augmented reality - from a 2D ‘map’ or target
● Google glass/ Oculus rift
● animated process/ cgi
● simulation/ 3D environment
● social - ‘favourite/ like’ solution
or suggestions
Technology enables and enhances agile
learning: Healthcare
● specific lifting and carrying advice [animated/ video]
information - QR coded/ interactive wifi
● animated guides to using equipment/ processes
● health condition/ treatment specific info for patients
● interactive checklist - sequence limited
● social network - routines completed
- tweeted
Enablers
● Internal driverso commitment of leadership
o cost/efficiency/ safety
o commitment of time and energy
● BYOD
● Social/ Intelligent WiFi
● Investment
Key skills
curation

performance management [with empathy/
flexibility and sensitivity] - manager 2.0
The Agile manifesto
We are uncovering better ways of developing software by
doing it and helping others do it. Through this work we
have come to value:
● Individuals and interactions over Processes and tools
● Working software over Comprehensive documentation
● Customer collaboration over Contract negotiation
● Responding to change over Following a plan
An Agile learning manifestoWe value:
● Individuals and their interactions over academic models and classroom
learning delivery
● Improved working and increased outputs over traditional assessments
of learning and qualifications or awards
● Employee collaboration over centralised learning delivery
● Responding to real wants and needs over simply providing what is
available
