Review of Reflective Practices in Programmes for New Academic Staff

There is a website for another of the HEA funded research reviews, namely Review of Reflective Practices in Programmes for New Academic Staff, based the the University of Manchester. It is a practitioner-based collaborative review. "The review is focused into 6 sub-areas within the context of programme for new academic staff: Outcomes and purposes of reflection; Approaches to reflection stressing the personal dimension; Approaches to reflection stressing the social dimension; Feedback and assessment in reflection; Pedagogic strategies to promote reflection; and finally a separate element of the review will look at the state of practice within the field." Suggestions for items to include are welcomed via an online form. http://www.campus.manchester.ac.uk/tlao/reflectivepractice/
