LSI : Learning style Inventory
most psychs say that the concrete/abstract dimension is where cognitive growth/learning occurs.
Goldstein and Scheerer suggest that greater abstractness results in development of:
- detach ego from world/ourselves
- assume mental set
- account for and verbalize events
- shift perspective
- think of many things at once
- grasp ideas as a whole and in parts
- abstract common props reflectively?
- plan ahead
in psychoanalytic theory - need for concrete childlike perspective in creative process= regression in service of the ego
Converger AC/AE - practical app of ideas - good at mc w/ one answer - engineers - gold
Diverger CE/RO-imaginative/perspective - brainstorming- arts/humanities/psych- blue
Assimilator AC/RO - theoretical models -basic sciences - R&D - green
Accommodator CE/AE - risk taker -business, mktg - orange
--------------
Tacit Learning
hunches, intuition, emotions, values, beliefs
nonintellectual qualities
Japanese - more tacit
American - more explicit
Tall oaks like activities - unless you take time to regroup, debrief, incorporate it into your work- it's just a fun day in the woods
cultivate the sharing of tacit knowledge in your O
- watch
- create environment of trust, respect, commitment
- let people learn by doing
- in any training exercise, allow for reflection and interpersonal exchange
