A Proposed Conceptual Framework of Workplace Learning: Implications for Theory Development and Research in Human Resource Development (2009, background): “The locations for on-the-job learning are environments that have not been necessarily designated for learning, but in which individuals learn naturally nevertheless (Beckett & Hager, 2002).”
Learning as cultural and relational: moving past some troubling dualisms (2005, background): “For example, two educational philosophers, David Beckett and Paul Hager, argue for the same approach in understanding learning in the workplace (Beckett & Hager, 2002).”
Surveying the scene: learning metaphors, survey design and the workplace context (2005, background): “First, the approach treats learning as a stockroom or vessel to be filled: ‘an individual human mind steadily being stocked with ideas’ (Beckett & Hager, 2002, p. 97) or ‘the human mind as a container to be filled with certain materials’ (Sfard, 1998, p. 5).”
The competence affair, or why vocational education and training urgently needs a new understanding of learning (2004, background): “These judgments reflect a capacity for successful acting in and on the world (see Beckett & Hager, 2002, p. 150).”
Conceptions of learning and understanding learning at work (2004, background): “But, most importantly, this model is called ‘front- end’ “…. because it implies that all of the learning that is needed for a lifetime of practice has been completed” (Beckett and Hager 2002, p. 99).”
