Shared knowledge

The practitioner research cycle is based on sharing your experiences and expertise in order to develop the professional knowledge base.

Having reflected individually upon your own learning within this course the next stage is to share these reflections within the course group and see what commonalities there are in what each of you has learnt. You may then want to share these insights more widely within the community.

Activity 6 Negotiating our shared learning

Timing: 1 hour online, during the sixth and final week of the course.

The objectives of this course activity are:

  • to discuss and agree what you have learnt as a group
  • to identify what information, if any, we wish to share with the wider community (and to share it).

Go to the course forum and, in the Discussion called ‘Shared Learning’, post a message in which you summarise the key learning points that have emerged for you during the course.

Then read through the key learning points that other members of the course have posted.

In your group decide on ONE combined set of key learning points which you are all agreed upon.
