This book discusses approaches to organizational learning from a
materialist point of view. Inspired by research into Police
Firearms training, features of expansive learning inform the
development of perspectives on training which challenge traditional
modes of research and delivery. The book critically reviews a range
of approaches to expansive learning and organizational research,
establishing the bases and limitations of an Expansive Learning
Index whose aim is to support collaborative provision in the
context of work-based research. Reflecting on this process, it
stresses the strangeness and mobility of workplace learning and
develops a philosophical pragmatics for professional development.
Approaches to knowledge and enquiry which place language and
subjectivity at the heart of development are challenged by a more
pragmatic approach to expansive learning: its consequences for
training, research, and professional development lead to a
discussion of the need for immanent forms of professional ethics.
