Task:
- In this task you
will explore how you can work with change
in your organisation to enable e-learning
to take place. Your trainer will show you
a brief PowerPoint® presentation
on approaches to working with change and
ask you to form groups of six. For further
information on the approaches presented please
read the document Exploring
change in an organisation (10
minutes).
- Complete the Activity: Embedding e-learning in your organisation:
- Working
individually, produce a short paragraph/rough
illustration on a piece of paper
to show the ‘Future Perfect’ -
the time when change has been successfully
implemented (10 minutes).
- In groups of six, use Edward de Bono’s ‘Six Hats’ technique to express different views on e-learning in your organisation. Record these views on flipchart, using a pen to match the colour of your hat (15 minutes).
- Merge with your online learning group and discuss whether you have found these tools useful, and which other tools listed in Exploring change in an organisation you might like to try in your organisation. Share your illustration of Future Perfect. You may wish to agree in your group to choose one tool each and trial it in your organisation between Day 2 and Day 3 (10 minutes).
For future action:
Identify a senior manager in your organisation who is responsible for the development of e-learning. Together with the senior manager, explore how the implementation of e-learning can contribute to your organisation’s business plan/strategic plan and how it can contribute to effective practice. Explore how the E-Guides training programme can help your organisation to achieve that ‘Future Perfect’ state.
