My dissertation is an evaluation of training methods. During my reading, I have come across the term learning. How do they differ, and when I'm doing my literature review, should my focus be on learning method or training method?

Hi,
Let me clarify that from a training perspective, the learning method and the teaching method are like two sides of a coin. Both are complementary to each other, yet they are different.
The learning method focuses on the styles, methods, and manner in which trainees absorb the learning best, whereas the training method draws attention to the trainer's ability, style, and method of effectively delivering the training. The correlation between the two happens when the trainer is able to adapt a style that is appropriate to the trainee's style of learning. For example, if the trainees are more visual in their style of learning, it is obvious that the trainer must use more visual aids and give exercises that make use of the visual style of learning rather than oral aids to make the training more effective.
I trust I have been able to demystify the two terms to your satisfaction. In fact, if you can do an excellent dissertation, it would benefit many trainers since the two terms are theoretically very clear, but their practical implication has always proved rather complicated and challenging. I would be personally interested in knowing the outcome of your efforts and would be happy to get a copy of your final report by email (actspot@gmail.com).
In the meanwhile, if you are interested in Inspirational And Motivational content from a training perspective, I would invite you to visit the following blogs:
