Exercise 2: The Reflective Practitioner is the Effective Practitioner!

Once you have categorised your current learning media, you should take some time to Reflect!

It is possible that the mapping exercise you just carried out has identified some weaknesses or gaps in the mix of the Four Dimensions of Learning. Perhaps you have insufficient Discussion exercises, or is there too much Delivery and little else?

You should now:

1. Spend a few minutes analysing the current breakdown - are there any obvious weaknesses?
2. Are your media fairly well balanced across the four Dimensions of Learning? Is there insufficient Discussion, perhaps?
3. Can you add to your list of Learning Media to redress any imbalance? The example highlights a Media in bold - this is one that has been added during the Reflection process.

You should take this task seriously - you will almost certainly never have the time again to do this kind of exercise!
