To do this I can ask for feedback from advisers or assessors. I also need to find ways of evaluating myself. Responding to feedback one of the ways in which I can evaluate my current state of knowledge and performance is by asking others for feedback. This is important because it can be hard to be objective about your own performance. Also I may lack skills or knowledge to be aware of what else you should be doing or other ways in which I might work.
At the individual level it is recognizing and reflecting on an issue that restricts one’s abilities and experiences, then taking action to change the issue for themselves and others affected (Chinn & Kramer, 2011). The key objective of praxis is through reflection to incorporate theory, practice and art to aid in the recognition and valuing of diverse types of knowledge (Kilpatrick, 2008). Praxis plays an integral role for the APN and there should be a solid foundation of understanding. There are several benefits for APN’s use of nursing praxis; it influences the relationship the practitioner develops with patients, their families and colleagues. Moreover, it provides the opportunity for change, personal nursing theory and knowledge development through self-reflection.
You would have to rely on the patient giving you the information for it not is socially desirable or have demand characteristics. On the other hand, it is better than individual differences as people may have the same thought patterns and processes. You can only obtain this information by self reports, which would probably give both of those issues; social desirability and demand characteristics. These would affect your results and therefore they would not be reliable or valid. If you were using the cognitive approach you would only get qualitative data which could be a problem as not everyone interprets the same answer in the same way.
For each set of learning materials list the strengths and weaknesses for analysis. During the analysis, the trainer can decide if new materials need to be created based upon the training criteria and factual information. Break the information into separate parts and analyze components to look for interrelationships. Use the information to solve problems in demonstrations to help trainees relate the details in context. Role playing is another method to ensure the new information is retained by trainees.
It may mean that a client would prefer things to be done in a specific way which a carer wouldn’t usually do. In order for the client to be comfortable with the service that the care company provides it need to be established how the client would like things to be done around their own home, it can become a problem if things aren’t done in a way in which a service user likes. 2.3 Explain how you adapt your actions and
Critical reflection blends learning through experience with theoretical and technical learning to form new knowledge constructions and new behaviors or insights. Learning by critical reflection creates new understandings by making conscious the social, political, professional, economic, and ethical assumptions constraining or supporting one’s action in a specific context (Ecclestone 1996; Mackintosh 1998). Critical reflection’s appeal as an adult learning strategy lies in the claim of intellectual growth and improvement in one’s ability to see the need for and effect personal and system change. Reflection can be a learning tool for directing and informing practice, choosing among alternatives in a practice setting, or transforming and reconstructing the social environment (Williamson 1997). Can critical reflection be taught in a classroom?
Expectations about own work role as expressed in relevant standards(Code of Practice, Regulations, Essential standards, National Occupational Standards): to examine why and how I practice, to identify areas for improvement, to develop different ways of working, to develop new areas of learning. 2. Be able to reflect on practice Importance of reflective practice: reflecting on situation can improve own knowledge, skills and understanding and may include: giving me grater insight, examining how effective my practice is, thinking through different approaches. Own values, belief system and experiences may affect working experiences by: understanding and being open to others` attitudes and beliefs, respecting differences between own and others personal attitudes, being aware of own personal attitudes and beliefs. 3.
This document is to review and outline some of the roles, responsibilities and boundaries in my experience as a tutor, trainer and practitioner, within teaching in terms of the training cycle. The teaching cycle helps us to organise what is going to be taught in the lesson and how is going to be taught and it is divided into five main categories; identify needs, plan and design, deliver/facilitate, assess, evaluate. In 1987 Neil Fleming individualised different approaches to study skills and suggested VAK as a definition which categorise three types of learners and therefore three types of learning styles; the Visual learner which prefers to learn through seeing, the Aural learner which prefers listening and discussing and the Kinaesthetic learner which prefers a more to-do approach. We plan the lesson at the planning stage, considering the different types of learners and need that we will be encountering and therefore preparing
Enlisted below is the broad classification of adult learning process into various sub-concepts such as:- • Firstly, Androgogy that is the art and science of making adults learn by an educator. • Secondly, Self-directed approach that is the need of individual to manage her or his own learning • Thirdly, Transformational approach or the psycho-cultural and cognitive restructuring of an individual due to experiences • Lastly, the class, gender and ethnicity learning that accentuate the impact of societal factors on learning. Androgogy It can be defined as the approach to become self-reliant, autonomous and self-directed by the means of experiences. It is not qualified by mission and vision but academic learning including reflection, critique
Social Cognitive * Affective learning processes Self regulated learning tends to be influenced by an individual’s emotions, behaviors, and their cognitive processing (Schunk & Zimmerman, 1997). This is a process that will orient the individual in achieving their goals by self generating (Schunk & Zimmerman, 1997). Schunk and Zimmerman (1997) stated that the self regulated learning process can also be considered as an academic self regulation process which has been studied over the years throughout different classrooms. The students taking the course learn how to use motivation, cognition, and behavior to improve their learning skills. These students who use motivational beliefs also utilize more self regulation learning skills (Schunk & Zimmerman, 1997).
