Learning and learning capability in the Fordist and post-Fordist age : an integrative framework
In this paper, the concept of learning capability is used to integrate different perspectives and to provide an integrative framework for capturing the changing nature of industrial orgnaization and international competition. The AA. focus
on analyzing Fordist and post-Fordist forms of learning at various levels and their differing impact on the learning capability of firms in a regional context. The role of interfirm networks is emphasized in facilitating learning and learning capability.
Undergraduate teaching and learning in physical geography
Active learning ; Constructivism ; Field experiment ; Physical geography ; Simulation ; Teaching ; Teaching of geography ; Traditional learning
Constructivist theory forms the basis for a wide range of active learning approaches, such as inquiry-based learning and problem-based learning. These approaches are inductive in that students build theory and generalizations from case studies
rather than more traditional approaches in which the students learn the theory and then study some examples. Students are typically more engaged in their active learning than they are in traditional approaches. Attempts to replace fieldwork with virtual
field trips have met with resistance, but there has been little research on the ways that virtual fieldwork could be improved. Animations in particular seem to engage students, although there is no evidence that they enhance the learning of physical
geography. The scholarship of teaching and learning physical geography offers challenges and opportunities for new and experienced faculty who have not previously published in this field.

The A. combines the result of fieldwork in Mumbai and other cities with a synthesis of theoretical research on knowledge, space and materiality to show how learning should be viewed as central to the production and politics of cities. He deploys
the concept of urban learning assemblage to explain the complex processes through which knowledge and learning enable and limit various forms of urbanism. - (HC)
