Abstract
This chapter examines how practice-based learning
perspectives allow to approach the broad, service-based
view of innovation and its processes as a collaborative
learning process of creating something new in a better
way. We focus on studying three practice-based learning
approaches through their key concepts. More specifically,
we are interested in how these theories interpret the
creation of new social structures, learning processes,
practices and tools in the cultural-historic context for
the creation of new knowledge and activity. The study
brings new conceptual insights to the topical phenomena
about various learning mechanisms in order to contribute
especially to the processes of innovation and enhance as
well as facilitate innovation activities within and
between organisations in a purposeful manner. Thus, as
our conclusion, we state that, by increasing the in-depth
understanding of different mechanisms of learning in
action and between actors, we can create better
conditions for innovation to take place.
