What is the agile learning concept? 
● learning happens all the time 
● learning happens whether you organise it or not 
● agile learning provides just enough information at the 
right time and in the right context 
● information>knowledge>skills through learning

How to Kick-Start Your Agile Learning Adventure
A whole new field of learning 
facilitation 
● just in time 
● in context - part of workflow 
● good enough [solves the problem] 
● iterative
Agile learning is…. 
● Just in time 
● Just where I need it 
● Just enough
Heuristics and reflection 
● heuristics - devising a solution that is less than optimal 
● reflective practice develops what WOULD have been 
the optimal solution for use next time
Social 
● approval of solutions provided 
● sharing of other ideas/ solutions in a 
‘community’ 
● favourite/ like/ re-tweet/ direct messages 
● capacity for personal development
grow the knowledge community 
NOT the knowledge base/ intellectual capital/ 
etc etc etc
Technology enables and enhances agile 
learning: industrial/ manufacturing 
● video and animation - with hyper labelling 
● augmented reality - from a 2D ‘map’ or target 
● Google glass/ Oculus rift 
● animated process/ cgi 
● simulation/ 3D environment 
● social - ‘favourite/ like’ solution 
or suggestions
Technology enables and enhances agile 
learning: Healthcare 
● specific lifting and carrying advice [animated/ video] 
information - QR coded/ interactive wifi 
● animated guides to using equipment/ processes 
● health condition/ treatment specific info for patients 
● interactive checklist - sequence limited 
● social network - routines completed 
- tweeted
Enablers 
● Internal drivers 
o commitment of leadership 
o cost/efficiency/ safety 
o commitment of time and energy 
● BYOD 
● Social/ Intelligent WiFi 
● Investment
So what does it look like?
Key skills 
curation 
facilitation 
performance management [with empathy/ 
flexibility and sensitivity] - manager 2.0
How to Kick-Start Your Agile Learning Adventure
The Agile manifesto 
We are uncovering better ways of developing software by 
doing it and helping others do it. Through this work we 
have come to value: 
● Individuals and interactions over Processes and tools 
● Working software over Comprehensive documentation 
● Customer collaboration over Contract negotiation 
● Responding to change over Following a plan
An Agile learning manifesto 
We value: 
● Individuals and their interactions over academic models and classroom 
learning delivery 
● Improved working and increased outputs over traditional assessments 
of learning and qualifications or awards 
● Employee collaboration over centralised learning delivery 
● Responding to real wants and needs over simply providing what is 
available
