Learning Layers Objectives
• Understand how informal learning takes place in and between SMEs (GP Practices in the UK pilot study)
• Identify potential for technology tools to support this learning
• Co-design, develop and pilot these tools – Improve tools, provide evidence of impact– Test and refine learning theories (Design Based Research)

Resulting tool – Bits & Pieces

Bits and Pieces:Record/collect, organise, share and collaborate
on informal learning & resources
• Tool Supports - affordances• Easy collection of learning triggers, reflections, experiences, materials • Cue based support to remember and find gathered material/resources• Visual support for sensemaking (organisation, reflection, development)

Collect – triggers, resources, experiences

Results
15
We found initial evidence that deeper elaboration of experiences during collection (reflection) facilitates remembering via semantic cues, while more shallow elaboration requires later re-evaluation of the collected experiences.
Healthcare professionals valued the collection, visualisation and collaboration affordances.
Next step: Long time pilot with GP Practice staff to support individual and team-based informal learning at the workplace
