Participatory Learning

Participatory learning captured in wiki using AI approach.

Brief introduction of AI.

APPRECIATIVE INQUIRY: From a post-modern or participatory democratic perspective, Gervase R. Bushe, observed in his article "When is Appreciative Inquiry Transformational" (2005) that there are two key characteristics of AI change interventions that succeed:

   * New knowledge is created
   * A generative metaphor emerges 

David Cooperrider and Diane Whitney describe in their article "A Positive Revolution in Change" that change results from an Appreciative Inquiry focus on five key principles:

   * The constructionist principle:..Organizations are socially co-constructed realities; therefore, articulate desirable collective futures.  
   * The poetic principle:.............We create our organization in our daily stories; therefore, use words that energize and inspire people.
   * The anticipatory principle:.....The collective image of the future guides us; therefore, artfully create positive images.
   * The positive principle:...........Craft the unconditional positive question to generate momentum and sustainable change. 
   * The principle of simultaneity:..The first question is fateful; change begins the second the system begins to engage in inquiry.


Three questions added to the blackboard and across the room for people to write on board

  • a story of someone who created change in an organization
  • what is change
  • original question: what's important to you about change
  • alternate & suggested 3rd question by Janet:

what tactics can you do, what tools can you use to encourage or create change in an organization?

* 10 mins.

Game: Each person in class is given a maximum of 60 secs. to give their story or thoughts of the question they have contributed to on the blackboard. Janet has a 60 sec. timer & bell.

* 20 mins.
