After spending the past few weeks studying the different perspectives and paradigms of HRD, develop a table that organizes the key concepts for your future use/reference. The key is, not everything in the textbook resonates the same with everyone. Instead of recording everything, go back and capture the concepts that you found to make the most sense to you and will likely be your "go-to" HRD concepts in the future. Organize them into a table so you can quickly reference them in the future. How you organize the table is up to you, but if I were to do this assignment, I may use the following columns:
Theory/construct
Author/date
Overview/description
Application (what this really looks like or means in real life situation)
