FESS is offering a series of three interactive standalone online workshops in the thematic area of Active Teaching and Learning, facilitated by Miriam O’ Donoghue. This is session two of the series. Participants may attend one or more of these workshops.
CPD Theme: Creative Reflection Toolkit

We do not learn from experience…we learn from reflecting on experience John Dewey

Even though there is no one way when it comes to reflection, many students find the process quite challenging when required to reflect or evaluate as part of their course or assessment work.

This workshop explores some creative reflection models, tools and activities that can help students engage with the reflective process so that it is more manageable, accessible and enjoyable.

During the workshop we will:

• discuss participants experience, thinking and feelings about reflection and their students
  • experience a range of engaging, accessible and creative reflection frameworks, tools and activities
  • explore applications and relevance to participants own work

Materials needed: Participants need to bring paper and pen to the session.

The target audience for this event is: FET teachers, tutors, trainers.

Facilitation: This event will be facilitated by Miriam O’Donoghue. Miriam is an independent facilitator, trainer and consultant with a strong background and experience of working in Education both nationally and internationally that includes teaching, lecturing and training roles at Primary, Post-primary, Further Education and Training, and Higher Education (Teacher Education) levels.
