A3 🧵 Encourage a safe environment; Give people the opportunity to create reflections but not share them; Be willing to give real-life and honest reflections as examples of your own; Don’t reduce the relevance with spurious examples. #LTHEChat

James Youdale This is a great point James, it’s not taught. There is a great book from when I first started working in the sector, J. Moon (2004) A Handbook of Reflective and Experiential Learning, these are the appendices dera.ioe.ac.uk/id/eprint/1299…. Often refer to it. #LTHEChat

Q5. How could our approach to the learning, teaching and assessment of reflection change? Where is change needed, and what should be retained from established practice? #LTHEChat

LTHE Tweetchat A5 maybe focus more on the reflection process and implications for teaching, less on assessment? Just a suggestion #LTHEchat

LTHE Tweetchat A5 Teach how to reflect, some great resources from a 2004 book dera.ioe.ac.uk/id/eprint/1299… Assess the regular process of reflection at all stages of the learning process. By assessing it, we are valuing it. Offer choice in how reflection is done. #LTHEChat

A5 #LTHEchat a lot of the points about encouraging & scaffolding reflection by students also apply to reflection by faculty & if staff members reflect on their actions as a way to learn to do things better that's more likely to become part of the institutional culture

#LTHEchat A6 We love the drawings! We can add a link to this blog as part of the resources that we offer staff to encourage them to actively reflect on the teaching/learning on the PGCert - and on their own practice. Thank you! :-D

LTHE Tweetchat A6 #LTHEchat #Takeaways - Practice - Translate - Orient and reorient yourself - Be kind to yourself - Celebrate your skills and experience and progress!!! - Reward - Don't. Stand. Still. - #LTHEchat community is awesome

LTHE Tweetchat A6 Without reflection there is no learning, it’s a skill, that needs practicing and needs to be taught. We can over complicate things with big diagrams, when a few simple questions will do. This applies to a lot in education. #LTHEChat

#LTHEChat 296: Synthesised Model of Reflection (SMOR) lthechat.com/2024/05/30/lth… via LTHE Tweetchat

Sandra Sinfield Martin Rich Ben Jennings Iain Wilson PhD SFHEA (He/Him) ALDinHE and LearnHigher Thank you 😊 I presented here youtu.be/-TQ96Y0Z75A?si… #LTHEchat

A6 Take away: while models such as the SMoR are always useful in focusing one mind, engaging in reflection - as in learning - is actually a messy, iterative, non-linear but essential process. #LTHEChat

A6 I think it is key to find a #reflective model that is #simple and robust. We can share 2 or 3 models, and students can select the model based on their #preferences. Providing #exemplars on each section of the model and #formative / #peer assessment can help #LTHEChat

LTHE Tweetchat A6 I am going to review my current activity of 'develop and action card identifying your development needs and what CPD you can do' against the model...with a view of changing it for next time module taught! (Have to remember where I put this reflection though 😉) #lthechat

LTHE Tweetchat A6 #LTHEChat a reminder to myself to redouble efforts to take time out to reflect. And a takeaway to consider the role of media more.

#LTHEchat Thank you so much! A gentle, thought-provoking and enjoyable hour (and what a model!!)...

LTHE Tweetchat A6 I'm always looking at new approaches and activities for reflection, so that they choose to own it and value this. #LTHEchat

A6 I’ll take away the blog itself, stick it to my pinboard, and disseminate to colleagues and learners as a tool to use. And I always love a good infographic! 😁 #LTHEChat

What an hour! Thanks LTHE Tweetchat for this opportunity and thanks ##LTHECHAT community for great discussions. Loads of thought-provoking ideas and examples. I look forward to catching up on the replies I missed... tried to keep up with as many as I could!!
