Reflective Learning at Work

• EU funded project (IST‐FP7) started in July 2010
• 15 Partners around Europe

▪ Individuals learn most by observing others and from experiences
▪ Support learning-on-the-job and experience sharing
▪ Learning by reflection on observed practices and collected data
▪ Focus on acquisition of tacit knowledge

Motivation

Reflective Learning Theory

▪ Boud et al. 1985
▪ ``those intellectual and affective activities in which
individuals engage to explore their experiences in order
to lead to new understandings and appreciations''

Why QS approaches?

Capturing Emotions at Work

▪ Support for:
▪ (I) Collaborative Settings
▪ (II) Virtual Team Meetings
▪ (III) Live Auditorium Feedback

9

(I) Collaborative Settings

▪ Project meeting
▪ Common work context

Curiosity
Self‐awareness
Sharing

10

(I) Collaborative Settings: Project Meeting

▪ Multiple visualizations and tools in the same scenario

11

(I) Collaborative Settings: Project Meeting

▪ Multiple visualizations
▪ More than 1000 entries from 32 participants
▪ Positive feedback and user acceptance
▪ Very different usage patterns

(III) Live Auditorium Feedback

▪ Capture live interest, attention and audience feedback

Self‐awareness
Communication
Reflection

(III) Live Auditorium Feedback

LIM: Live Interest Meter


Challenges

▪ Goal‐oriented and lack of time
▪ Have to see the benefits/utility – show payoff
▪ Create CURIOSITY

▪ Add entertainment, motivation, feedback
▪ Constructive and positive

▪ Tendency to avoid/ignore emotions at work
▪ What you show vs. what it really is

▪ Individual and collaborative environment

▪ Privacy concerns
19

Conclusions and Outlook

▪ How can we motivate people to capture their
emotions at work?

▪ Automatic approaches i.e. sensors
▪ ECG (heart rate), acceleration sensors (physical activity)
▪ User study at a clinic*

More QS approaches can inspire new
effective reflective tools!
