Contribuições das metodologias ativas no contexto organizacional: uma análise através da andragogia sobre estudos de casos

Abstract

Active methodologies are more effective in knowledge construction compared to traditional methods, as they promote active and autonomous learning, encouraging individuals to take ownership of their learning process and to develop essential skills and competencies. While extensive research has examined the impact of these methodologies within educational institutions, their application in other types of organizations remains relatively underexplored. With this in consideration, this study aims to investigate the contributions of active methodologies by focusing on two distinct organizations: one in the industrial sector and the other in the financial sector, as represented in case studies available in the academic literature. The industrial organization employs techniques such as brainstormings, contextual learning, benchmarking, 5W2H, and design thinking to address specific demands. Conversely, the financial organization utilizes design thinking and brainstorming, emphasizing employee learning and its impacts. The research seeks to identify the active methods utilized by these organizations, the contexts in which they were applied, and the outcomes achieved. This qualitative and descriptive study, based on bibliographic data, employs a transdisciplinary approach to analyze sociocultural aspects related to corporate education and active learning. The findings indicate that, in both organizations, active methodologies contributed to fostering a more innovative environment. These methodologies were demonstrated to be an integral approach to learning, equipping learners for a continuous pursuit of knowledge in an integrative, practical and creative manner, enhancing the culture of innovation within the organizations.
