Reengineering Corporate Training.

Malcolm, Stanley E. – Training, 1992

Typical on-the-job training is unstructured, inconsistent, and slow, yet it accounts for about 80 percent of learning that will occur on the job. More time should be devoted to planning problem-centered training programs and less to formal training. (JOW)

A Design Approach to Science. Simulated Laboratories: Learning via the Construction of Meaning.

Peer reviewed

Peterson, Nils S.; And Others – Machine-Mediated Learning, 1987

This discussion of teaching science as a design activity emphasizes open-ended problem solving. Highlights include the relationship between teachers and students; hypotheses as solutions; and descriptions of four microworlds, or computer simulations, in chemistry, geography, physiology, and genetics which use graphic interfaces.
