Informal Learning at the
Workplace
• Informal learning is the most common form of learningat the workplace, although not in the focus of HR development
• It works well in smaller teams and companies, but hasits limits when it comes to scaling
• Informal learning takes place in personal learningnetworks, which are currently mainly face-to-face
• Informal learning still makes little use of digital resources

Trials in two sectors
• Healthcareprimary care in UK(Leeds/Bradford)
• Constructiontraining center andSMEs in North Germany

Learning Toolbox
Learning Toolbox allows for the definition,
use and reuse of flexible context related
and multi-paged sets of tiles that connect
dynamically into
- Tools
- Online services
- Content
- People

Different tilesets can be made for different contexts and can be loaded into LTB manually or with help of sensors or QR-codes. Tiles can also be used to dynamically inject company-specific
content like manuals etc.

LivingDocuments
• Key idea promote knowledge maturing through enabling mixing of and transition between different phases
• Indicators – turn towards a user-driven approach
with personalized indicators – concepts: reliability, controversiality, maturity

Informal Learning and Trust
• Trust is a major aspect to consider whenscaling learning
– towards informal situations: from trusting training providers to trusting(unknown) peers
– towards larger networks:from trusting immediate contacts to extendednetworks
http://Learning-Layers.eu
Trust indicators
• Results about trust
– Trust aggregates from various trustworthiness cues
– Trust propagates across trust relationship types
– Trust is even more critical for digital artefacts
• Design implications: Indicators andrecommendations
– Trust used to personalize system behaviour
– Trust and maturity cues particularly useful forcollaborators outside the “inner circle”
http://Learning-Layers.eu
Conclusions
• Scaling informal learning needs to addressthree major aspects
– How knowledge develops in networks
– How trust forms and influences activities
– How to cross and adapt to contexts
• Co-design processes involving users at all stages are crucial
