Example text

Interpreted in terms of Herrmann’s metaphoric model of the brain, this presupposes that all four quadrants of the brain, represented by the brain dominance of each virtual team member, should be included in any virtual team effort. Lumsdaine and Lumsdaine (1995) identify the following four modes of learning, which could be applied to the context of e-learning in the following way: • External learning is related to virtual learning from authority through factbased e-texts. It is predominantly A quadrant learning.

In the cultural and social environment of virtual teamwork the learning activities of the right mode can be described as participative and future-oriented. The inclusion of all these modes in elearning comprises a full range of activities. Herrmann (1996) and Gazzaniga (1998) confirm that physical connections secure integrated brain activity, that each hemisphere is specialized in a different way, controls vastly different aspects of thought and action, and thus has its own limitations and advantages.

Recognizing this, and applying related principles will at least offer e-learners a better chance of dealing appropriately with the different types of problem that they have to solve. An important characteristic of the LSF theory is that every learner should be accommodated as a whole. Each learner’s uniqueness should be respected and developed. Moreover, each learner’s full, latent potential should be maximized. We suggest Herrmann’s (1995) theory on whole brain learning as a point of departure for effective virtual teamwork.
