Developing a reflective practice culture

Welcome to this course on developing a reflective practice culture. This is a follow-on course to Getting Started with Reflective Practice, and so it assumes that you have a sound working knowledge of reflective practice to begin with. It has been developed with two groups of people in mind: (i) practitioners who want to take their knowledge of reflective practice to the next level; and (ii) managers who have responsibility for promoting reflective practice within their domain of responsibility.

Following a short video introduction, there are five video-based lessons:   

• 1.Why develop critically reflective practice?This lesson explains why, for reflective practice to achieve its full potential, it needs to be criticallyreflective practice   

• 2.Reflective tools I: Why use them?Reflective practice tools can be extremely helpful, so in this lesson we look at why they are important and how they can be used.   

• 3.Reflective tools II: Tools for thinkingReflective practice takes place at the meeting point of thinking and doing. In this lesson we focus on tools that be helpful in taking our thinking forward.   

• 4.Reflective tools III: Tools for actionComplementing Lesson 3, we focus here on tools for action, useful techniques that can make a real difference in the workplace.   

• 5.Embedding reflection in practiceOne of the biggest obstacles to reflective practice is a workplace culture that discourages thinking and learning. So, in this final lesson we highlight what is involved in embedding reflection in practice by creating and sustaining a reflective culture.

    There is also a module companion workbook that you will need to print out before you start the course. It contains space for notes plus an exercise relating to each of the five lessons. This is an important resource for you, as it will help to extend and consolidate your understanding and provide you with a set of notes to act as a reference source for future development.
