Exhibit 4.4: The vicarious learning circle The starting point of vicarious learning is generalized knowledge and skills that are required for undertaking a job. These generalized skills have to be transferred according to the job-specific situation. It must be noted that vicarious learning process is just the reverse of virtuous learning cycle, as shown in Exhibit 4.4. While in the former, training reinforces learning, in this the whole learning exercise can become a futile effort. The role of trainer
number of studies and theories have addressed the issue of simulation in nursing education, and especially how learning is being affected by the use of simulation in teaching.

Lifelong learning consists of the attainment of enriching knowledge and skills, as a result, indicating a change in actions.

If the employee are not motivated to learn and the company need to teach them something new or just want to develop their skills, it can lead to spending more time and money to set up a proper process.

Another principle of the same proponent states that learning is a consequence of experience. It supports one of the constructivist theories, which is discovery-learning theory by Bruner
