The SMART Learning 4.0 Framework

For Learning:
  • In the moment, with others, helping others (The Context)
  • Retroactively, in the moment, toward a goal (The Paths)

Imagination. 4.0 helps expand your imaginative capability – your ability to create and be guided by your own self-generated virtual reality.
Whole brain/ whole body. 4.0 helps you use the full capacity of your learning brain and body -- your physiological, conscious and your unconscious functions
Self-Transformation. 4.0 draws on your deeper self-knowledge to help you more consciously transform yourself and your talents to live a meaningful and full life.
Deep learning.  With 4.0 you see patterns in data, experiences, and even your own thoughts and actions.
Anywhere/Anytime. Learning 4.0 increases your sensitivity to the learning opportunities around you, and helps you learn in the moments they occur.
Smart use of information. With 4.0 you find the best information for your needs, while recognizing and not being swayed by biases and data manipulation that is intended to influence your decisions and actions.
Resource versatility. 4.0 sees all learning resources as extensions of your brain, providing specific strategies for mining the gold in any resource or experience
Change agency. 4.0 helps you successfully transfer your learning into your work and life environments. With 4.0 you make a difference in the world!
Co-evolution with technology.  4.0 helps you use smart technologies to achieve important and life sustaining goals. You remain in charge of these technologies.
Shared 4.0. 4.0 learning capabilities are sharable – a good virus to bring the above learning qualities into groups and to those whose learning you support.

7 Practices of 4.0 Learning
Hear the Call. Learning opportunities tap us on the shoulder in many ways. But do you hear their call?
Create Future-Pull: A multi-faceted internal image of the future is a powerful force for learning success. Take time to immerse in it.
Use Scanners: The information environment is too vast for any individual to master. But there is help in the form of human and technological scanners.
Connect the Dots: There are three learning paths: in the moment, toward a goal, retroactively from experience. 4.0 learners identify learning actions and manage successful journeys on all three.
Mine for Gold: You have to take information into you in order to turn it into learning. This takes both mind and media management.
Learn to Last: Learning takes four different forms: remembered knowledge, skills, new attitudes and beliefs, and even creative ideas. Each requires different learning approaches.
Transfer to Life: It’s one thing to be able to do something and another to actually do it in the real world. Successful learners must be self- and social behavior engineers.
