Open discussion...

This evening's open discussion skype group was attended by people across all three modules and the discussions centred around a general theme of reflection. We talked about reflecting across the term and what key ideas or questions had surfaced across the module you've been in. Agata spoke about the beauty of the learning being not a thing you do within any module but about recognising learning as being in the process of whatever you are doing, as well as the in-between places between modules, between terms. 

The notion of connections became apparent as people reflected on their learning journeys and and looked to bridge gaps to the next module and with their professional practice. We spoke about being in relationship with your research, your study, your practice and being able to listen to it rather than tryng to make it 'fit' or answer your questions.

Those that were a part of this discussion please comment here with your blogs to share more from your perspectives.

What are your questions? What directions might they lead you in?
