Skilling – training a worker to do a specific task
Skilling is work-oriented, discrete, and measurable.
Skilling is necessary but not sufficient. Skilling isn’t as durable as general-purpose learning: critical-thinking, leadership, and empathy.
A kind learning environment builds skill by practicing the activity alone.
A wicked learning environment has unclear or incomplete rules, there may or may not be patterns, feedback is delayed, inaccurate, or both.
If your learning journey is only skilling-based, you are missing the breadth that will apply across many work domains and enrich your humanity.
