WHAT IS LEARNING
Learning is the act of acquiring new, or modifying and
reinforcing, existing knowledge, behaviors, skills, values
, or preferences and may involve synthesizing different
types of information. The ability to learn is possessed by
humans, animals and some machines. Progress over
time tends to follow learning curves. Learning is not
compulsory; it is contextual. It does not happen all at
once, but builds upon and is shaped by what we already
know. To that end, learning may be viewed as a process,
rather than a collection of factual and procedural
knowledge. Learning produces changes in the organism
and the changes produced are relatively permanent.

LEARNING ORGANIZATION
A learning organization is an organization
skilled at creating, acquiring, and
transferring knowledge, and modifying its
behavior to reflect new knowledge and
insights
New ideas are essential if learning is to take
place
Without accompanying changes in the way that
work gets done, only the potential for
improvements exist

Culture consists in patterned ways of thinking, feeling and reacting, acquired
and transmitted mainly by symbols, constituting the distinctive achievements
of human groups, including their embodiments in artefacts; the essential core

and especially their attached values.
