diamond’ framework to examine how individuals, communities,
organizations and host industries reciprocally influence each other
in the course of knowledge work.
* * This highly topical book focuses on work-based projects as a
focus for organizational learning.

organization and industry learning.

this link if they are to capitalize on project-based
learning.
* Incorporates material on project-based learning in virtual
communities.
* Refers to different examples, such as the film industry, the
software industry and the boat building industry.
* Includes end-of-chapter questions provoking reflection and
discussion.
