  5. Lessons Learned • A bonus system was adopted Every contribution was evaluated between 5 to 50 points to be accumulated in the “bonus pocket” that was integrated with the evaluation of other assignments. Out of 43 participants 10 did not contribute, 19 contributed up to 100 points, 10 contributed up to 200, 4 contributed more than 300 (up to 775 maximum).

  6. Future Vision • informal (in a traditional setting), • social (working in a group), • individual (personalized training), • community (shareholders learn together), • action (learning meets practice), • organizational (embedded knowledge) and • ubiquitous (everywhere/anytime) learning.

  7. Conclusion Educational stakeholders (instructors, administrators, citizens, employers, providers, politicians and parents) should support change
