Rezensionen

"Global learning requires boundary-less knowledge sharing and collaborative learning. This volume of papers shows how to create boundary-breaking behaviour in the areas of teams and collaborative learning, integrating working and learning in the workplace, the added value of IT in the learning process and innovative educational processes. The key message is: erase the boundaries that separate work and learning. Reinvent work, re-imagine learning.
Breaking boundaries down requires the making of radical changes and transformations. However in many cases those boundaries continue to exist in the minds of people responsible for leading those changes. Enter the 'boundary busters'- people with a boundary-breaking mentality. Are you ready to live in a world without boundaries? The present volume, based on research, analyses, and examination of good practices, proves that 'boundary busting' is part of the 'daily routine' of the authors representing the EDiNEB Network. Join them before they pay you an unexpected visit and break your boundaries."
