Designing A Workplace Environment Within The Workplace

This training module will be implemented to create a workplace environment that is designed to meet the learning needs of all departmental employees, by teaching them the acceptable ways of approaching the learning process in the workplace environment. This training module will be a two hour training and it will cover multiple intelligences, Reinforcement (feedback), Holism, Scaffolding, and lastly Metacognition. We will also include information on, why it is important to grasp ideas and concepts that could inevitably lead to a better, clearer understanding of why it’s important to nurture the learning process in the workplace.

In the workplace it is necessary to commend those that are standin g out above the rest. This is an example of behaviorism, or learning by observation. When an action reinforces positive behavior, it is good for all the employees to see because it increases the likelihood of the action being repeated. Holism is an important aspect of learning as it pertains to looking at things for what they are as a
