Module One and Two

 Yesterday we had two sessions: one with a focus on the RPL process, which you typically undertake in the first term of study on MAPP and one with an introduction to the aims and content of module two. 

Connecting the conversations of both sessions was the space for reflection, evaluation and analysis in learning. 

Through the RPL process you are asked to:

- critcally reflect on areas of prior learning - we discussed how these may be made up of prior EXPERIENTIAL learning (learning through doing in practice) and prior ACCREDITED learning (learning that has already been recognised at level 7 through another course or framework). 

- evaluate your learning experiences in relation to scholarship - the work of other theorists, scholars, practitioners and artists who have published work in relation to your Areas of Learning

- analyse the learning from particular areas or moments in your practice - rather than describe an experience

In Module Two you are invited to:

- consider an area of your practice in more depth by critically reflecting on your learning to date, identifying what you would like to get to know better/more about within your existing practice

- evaluate how this area of inquiry has relevance to your professional practice and continued professional development

- analyse the existing literature/scholarship already published in this field in order to 'map' the broader context of your proposed inquiry

One process looks back, the next looks around you, both apply concepts of critical reflection, evaluation and analysis.

Both sessions were recorded and are available for you on UniHub today.

Please comment below with your thoughts on either session, how are you thinking about your learning? what are you noticing in the field around your practice?
