摘要

在当今充满活力的商业环境中,必须利用一切有助于提高业务绩效的途径。在过去的几十年里,人们对传播促进组织效率和绩效的兴趣大大增加。尽管探险体验式学习计划(AEL)的倡导者提出了积极的主张,但随着探险体验式学习计划在商学院和企业界的推广,有必要进行持续的实证调查。本研究旨在确定为期一天的课程对商学院成人学员沟通能力的发展影响。在南非一所大学的商学院,对报名参加管理领导资格课程的有长期工作任命的成人学员进行了沟通适应性量表的前后测评。实验组(n=140)的后测总分(p=0.0001)明显高于对照组(n=126)。五个维度的后测得分与对照组的后测得分有明显差异(P<0.05)。研究结果表明,成人英语课程对培养成人学习者的沟通能力具有潜在的功效。需要对应用特定方法的基本原则和其他计划因素进行持续研究,以最大限度地提高干预效果,实现预期成果。

The Impact of a one-day adventure-based experiential lernaing programme on the communication competence of adult learners at a business school
In today’s dynamic business environment, every avenue that can contribute to fostering business performance has to be embraced. Interest in the contribution of communication to organisational effectiveness and performance has increased considerably in the last few decades. Despite positive claims made by advocates of adventure-based experiential learning programmes (AEL), the expansion of AEL into business schools and the corporate world necessitates ongoing empirical investigations. The aim of the study was to determine the developmental impact of a one-day programme on the communication competence of adult learners at a business school. The Communicative Adaptability Scale was administered as pre- and post-test measurement to adult learners with a permanent work appointment who enrolled for a qualification in management leadership in a business school at a university in South Africa. The overall post-test scores of the experimental group (n=140) were significantly higher (p=0.0001) than the post-test scores of the control group (n=126). The post-test scores of five dimensions differed significantly (p<0.05) from the post-test scores of the control group. The findings indicate the potential efficacy of an AEL course for the development of communication competence in adult learners. Ongoing research directed at principles underlying the application of particular methodologies and other programmatic factors to maximise efficacy in reaching the desired outcomes of the interventions, are required.
