"This article examines learning and good practice dissemination in the light
of the evolution and experience of the Finnish Workplace Development
Programme (TYKES), which has been running from 1996 in Finland, and
will complete its third term in 2009. The emphasis will be on the new project
concept used in the second term of the Programme, namely learning
networks. The concept of “good practice” is critically examined, and some
ideas, pointing out to a need to pay due attention to the quality and learning
spaces of “everyday small loops of learning”, in trying to bridge the
“dissemination gap”, often identified in programme and project
learning, are examined in the light of a feasibility study of a new TYKESfinanced
learning network project, PEERS, led by the author." (author's abstract)... view less
