Skype discussion group - 9pm

We had some good conversations on the 2nd skype discussion group today, talking across the modules, connecting our processes of getting started, getting to know what to do, organising our time. We talked about this as a focus of getting into the BAPP programme, whether for the first time, finding your way with the first module, or returning to study and re-starting. We found that connections are easily drawn with how we approach our practice; how do we begin, get started, plan ahead, achieve deadlines etc...

Communication became quite a key focus and we touched on Web 2.0, the interactivity this promotes and how this can be likened to learning - being a process of active engagement and interaction rather than a passive response only mode. Blogs were a reminder of useful ways to communicate ideas and share thoughts with each other and we talked about seeing the module handbooks as a companion with you all the way through each module to keep going back to, not an introductory step-in only.

As those of you on this call asked questions, gained confidence in responding, listened, learnt, all had your own experiences and perspectives to see things through you demonstrated in-action, the benefit of conversations; connecting thoughts, ideas, sharing...not posing a question and having it answered...

I look forward to reading more about your thoughts in your blogs...
