ALL:konkret: The world of work as a context for lifelong learning - ethnographic studies on actors, agendas and arenas
Duration: 01.01.2020 to 31.12.2024
As a continuation of the "BWB:konkret" project, "ALL:konkret" also strives for an inductive description of the reality of in-company continuing education. In ethnographic company visits lasting several weeks, data, documents and information not pre-structured by hypotheses are collected, for example through work shadowing, participatory observations, individual and group interviews or the analysis of documents. The data collected is analyzed in joint research workshops and fed into further phases of data collection and evaluation. The results of this circular research process are case-specific organizational analyses that reveal the individual specifics of an organization's in-company continuing education reality and make them open to discussion both for research and for the personnel and organizational development of the organizations under investigation. The organizational analyses are also reflected upon in joint workshops with the organizations studied. The objectives are as follows:
- Reconstruction of structures, strategies, organizational forms, technologies of corporate learning (system perspective)
- Reconstruction of meaningful motives, effective theories, contradictory requirements for action and cooperation in the practice of continuing education in the workplace (actor perspective)
- Reconstruction of historical lines of development, of conditional cycles, decision-making processes and the interlocking of in-company continuing education with external and societal processes (process perspective)
- Extraction of criteria for quality and professionalism of non-formal continuing education in company contexts
- Organizational and professional theoretical classification of in-company continuing education
- Development of a scheme for surveying company learning cultures and educational practice
- Development of conceptual approaches and action strategies for the further development of an innovative continuing education policy
- Didactic preparation of the case studies for teaching purposes in the scientific education and training of educational staff

StahlAssist - Didactic design and ergonomic evaluation of assistance systems for safe action in complex situations in the steel industry
Duration: 01.04.2017 to 31.03.2020
Goal - safely mastering complex work situations in the steel industry
The increasing networking of work systems promotes efficiency in the steel industry, but at the same time increases the mental strain on employees. In complex work situations, maintenance employees have to evaluate a large amount of current process data from the systems. The experience and knowledge of specialists within the company and external service providers is indispensable for the quick and safe completion of tasks. To support employees, assistance systems are required that make expert knowledge directly available in the work process and thus contribute to the design of safe work and qualification.
Procedure - Technology-based assistance systems for safe and learning-promoting work in steelworks
The requirements for the assistance systems are determined on the one hand by means of an ergonomic risk assessment at selected workplaces and an analysis of the qualification requirements. Secondly, the technical knowledge and experience of the experts is brought together in individual and group discussions for integration into the assistance systems. Maintenance employees can then access this expertise during the work process via smart devices. To ensure the assistance systems are used effectively, the maintenance processes are adapted with the aim of designing work in a way that promotes health and learning.
