TAHC, TST, Methodology, Learning and innovationAbstract
This article aims to propose an analytical model and contribute to the methodology used to study the phenomenon of learning and innovation, through the appropriation of two theoretical-methodological models: cultural-historical activity theory (CHAT) and socio-technical system (STS) theory. AIESEC (Association Internationale des Etudiants in Sciences Economiques et Commerciales) Curitiba was used as empirical field to expose such methodology.Downloads
