Learning Environment

 

           What makes a learning organization different from other organizations is how unique & different it’s learning environment is.

This gives a framework to LC activities for @XP implementation.

           The goal of a learning activity is to enhance the level of knowledge of its participants, be it around a functional area or around a specific issue. Through their involvement in Learning Activities, participants should develop the change agent characteristics, which are: socially responsible, active learner, culturally sensitive, entrepreneurial.

 

 

 

 

Individual Discovery and Self-Reflection is about getting to know yourself better and defining your values, your goals. By setting their personal goals, members can get more out of their experience both personally and professionally.

 

 

 

Teams are the basis of our organizational structure. They are comprised of at clearly defined structure and shared responsibilities. Teams in AIESEC are usually considered of at least 1 team leader and 3 team members. They work together for a defined space of time and towards a common agreed goal. Working in a team gives members the opportunity to acquire personal and professional skills.

 

 

 

 

 

AIESEC Learning Circles are local learning communities formed by local and international AIESECers who share a common interest in gaining experience, knowledge and building a network. They take the form of regular discussions (e.g. every two weeks) that are led by an AIESEC member with a previous interest or knowledge in the topic of the discussion. As such, they build on two principles of the AIESEC Experience: taking an active role in your learning and the learning of others, and challenging your worldview.

  

 

Conferences and Seminars are forums of discussion which bring together AIESEC members, representatives of external organisations and university students to share their knowledge and gain new insights.

 

 

Mentoring is a one to one relationship that allows mentors to support mentees in finding their own path for development and growth. It is a “means to an end”, the ultimate objective is the realization of the mentee’s full potential by exploring alternatives with the support and encouragement of the mentor.

 

 

Virtual Spaces consist of virtual platforms that enable people to learn and connect around a specific topic, area of interest or existing team.  Virtual spaces connect all the other elements of the Learning Environment.
