This document discusses concepts and theories as building blocks of inquiry and research. It provides examples of a concept and theory from Kolb's experiential learning theory. Specifically, it notes that Kolb's theory builds on Carl Jung's assertion that learning styles result from preferred ways of adapting. It also cites Kolb's original sources on experiential learning theory, which drew from the works of Dewey, Lewin, and Piaget to form a unique perspective on learning and development. The document suggests further exploring the connection between Kolb and Jung cited in other sources.

Back to basics the building blocks of inquiry For your research - you are reading literature and source materials that relate to abstract ideas that help you see what is going on in your workplace. Inquiry and research are about investigating ideas. Concept an idea a unit of thought or element of knowledge that allows us to organize experience (Janet Gail Donald (2001). Theory a rationale or justification based on ideas or evidence a system of ideas intended to explain a phenomenon especially a system based on general principles and therefore independent of the target phenomenon (Brewerton and Millward 2001).
Example of a concept and theory the building blocks of inquiry As with many behavioural and personality models, interesting correlations exist between Kolb's theory and other concepts. For example, Kolb says that his experiential learning theory, and therefore the learning styles model within it, builds on Carl Jung's assertion that learning styles result from people's preferred ways of adapting in the world. (business balls, 2010) This was sourced from the web so I wanted to look and see if it was okay.
Example of a concept and theory - sourced from Kolb on the web to check the original source Experiential Learning Theory: Previous Research and New Directions Experiential Learning Theory (ELT) provides a holistic model of the learning process and a multilinear model of adult development, both of which are consistent with what we know about how people learn, grow, and develop Another reason the theory is called experiential is its intellectual origins in the experiential works of Dewey, Lewin, and Piaget. Taken together, Deweys philosophical pragmatism, Lewins social psychology, and Piagets cognitive-developmental genetic epistemology form a unique perspective on learning and development. (Kolb, 1984). (Kolb, et al. 1999). Now this gives you a better sources than businessballs but it might be worth looking into the connection of Kolb and Jung further to see where that observation or academic argument really came from that is the person or author who said it in the first place.
