Reseña del libro "Unleash Unstoppable Learners (en Inglés)"
In 2017, Pat McLagan introduced an upgraded approach and framework for adults as lifelong learners in her book, Unstoppable You: Adopt the New Learning 4.0 Mindset and Change Your Life. That book helps everyone to become a SMART 21st Century learner. In this Guide, she helps learning professionals bring this new learning dimension into their work as a learning strategists, designers, developers, facilitators, and evaluators. She also invites educators/trainers/talent professionals on a journey to help evolve learning mindsets and practices to a level where every adult rises to the immense learning challenges of these changing times.A new approach to learning is overdue. The world is changing rapidly - requiring new skills and increased agility from everybody, creating new information management challenges, calling on everyone to self-manage and draw on their creative capabilities. Also, organizations are investing more and more in learning programs and apps, but not realizing desired financial and learning transfer returns on their investments. Part of the reason is that most people still bring mindsets and skills from their school days into their formal and informal learning. And, traditional teaching, training and development -- while it incorporates new technologies and more creative program and app design -- still often assumes that the learner is an object to be shaped rather than an agent to unleash. Unleash Unstoppable Learners with SMART Learning 4.0, helps learning professionals become a more powerful force in the next revolution in learning - a revolution where learning is an ongoing, smart-everywhere process that every individual owns and that every learning professional supports. Where learning is more imaginative, whole brain/bodied, versatile across a range of learning experiences; where people co-evolve with technology, see through information manipulation and look for deeper lessons and insights, are agents of change in their world, manage their own ongoing personal growth, learn anywhere and anytime, and help and learn with others. With the framework and tools in this Guide professionals create more learnable experiences but also help people become more learning-able! It's time for a new learning framework and mindsets tuned to the challenges of our times. Let Unleash Unstoppable Learners with SMART Learning 4.0: A Guide for Learning Professionals - and its companion book for learners, Unstoppable You: Adopt the New Learning 4.0 Mindset and Change Your Life (2017, ATD Press) help you launch this very needed revolution in learning and helping others learn to life.
