Unit of Study: EDPC5024 - Learning & Change, a Systems View
In this core unit we will use 'systems inquiry' as a conceptual framework to describe change and learning processes, on the individual, group and organisational level. We focus on a theory-based approach to change management and organisational learning, so that students can come to appreciate the complexity, and non-linearity, of bringing about change in schools, corporations and other organisations, and become more critical about fashion-driven management approaches that lack a robust research basis. Students will gain hands-on practical experience as they apply systems inquiry concepts and methods to analyse change problems in their own professional environment.
