Nuevo “rol” y paradigmas del Aprendizaje, en una Sociedad Global en RED y Compleja: la Era del Conocimiento y el Aprendizaje

Abstract

In the current global, networked and complex environment some essential things are changing the field of Knowledge (K). A very important one is the qualitative transformation of the process of creating and sharing “K” (e-Knowledge), which impact is affecting all aspects concerning Knowledge Management and Learning. For that Networked Environment it is required a new methodology, based on the Management of Complexity, using a systemic approach suitable for many different problems. In our case, in the academic world, shipped in the process of adaptation to the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) it will be required to develop a new vision and an explicit strategy for Knowledge Management (KM), in order to cope with the new scenario of an emerging knowledge-based economy. On the convergence of emerging professional and academic fields, it is observed not just the similarity among the traditional paradigms of KM and LM, but also the inability of them to assume the requirements which the new Networked Environment demands. A reconceptualization of Knowledge and Learning processes must be accomplished, based on Connections (Networking). They should include the new “role” and new Paradigms of Learning: An Adaptive Learning Model in Complex Environments. As a strategy for personal adaptation, specially to the EHEA, throughout this paper it is proposed a “Digital Identity and Networked Learning process of development”, in addition to the already published model Suricata, based on Open Initiatives – “People and Corporate, Labor and Learning” .
