“By three methods we may learn wisdom: first by reflection, which is noblest; second by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is bitterest.”

Confucius

can be

“A set of abilities and skills, to indicate the taking of a critical stance, an orientation to problem solving or state of mind"

(Moon, 1999).

“[Learners reflect] when they analyse or evaluate one or more personal experiences, and attempt to generalise from that thinking"

(Cowan, 1999)

“A reflection in a mirror is an exact replica of what is in front of it. Reflection in professional practice, however, gives back not what it is, but what might be, an improvement on the original"

(Biggs, 1999)

Self-reflection: (more than) holding up the mirror

Defeatist Dipesh

I’m no good at giving presentations…

…and I never will be

Knowing limitations is the first step to improving

Descriptive Davina

I gave 20 presentations last year. The first one was on…

Experience doesn’t speak for itself

Defensive Dan

I prepared a really good presentation, but the venue, audience, equipment and co-presenters were all rubbish

Blaming is the opposite of reflection

Be your own referee

Summary

•Reflection is an ongoing process•If it’s not critical, it’s not reflection•If it’s not developmental, it’s not reflection•Personal is not the same as private•Others might be as good a judge as you

GreystoneVillage

GreystoneCircuits

Being stuck in the traffic at Greystone is an occupational hazard for anyone who goes to the British GP. There really is not terrestrial way to avoid it - unless you get on a motorbike (and risk being soaked by a passing rainstorm). This year at 0630 on Sunday traffic was tailed back four miles on the A43 and on the back road at Stowe was seized solid three miles out. Later in the morning, we heard, the traffic jam reached legendary proportions, as it does every year. Greystone traffic is the worst in the world and it never gets any better. There are many rumoured short cuts and secret routes but over the years I have tried them all and none ever really work.

Based on an article from Granprix.com 1995

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/motorsport/800418.stm

A RACING circuit today lost its appeal against a legal case brought by a couple and their daughter who say their lives have been blighted by noise from the track.

Corporate Responsibility

CSR – Greystone’s objectives• To make a positive contribution to the local community, maximising the benefits that the circuit brings and minimising any negative effects. • To expand on some of the successful education initiatives that Greystone already has in place. • Maximise utilisation of our health initiatives to benefit the local community. • Use Greystone’s brand, heritage and facilities to increase tourism to our region, working with partners from Northamptonshire and Aylesbury Vale. • Minimise the effect that the business and its activities has on the environment

The Contract

Greystone are seeking to commission a consultancy company to develop and implement a 3 year plan to improve relationships with the immediate local community.

• A power point presentation which details the three year plan.• An outline of the main events or components of this plan. • Details of additional recourses which are going to be needed to

implement this plan. You will not be expected to present actual costs, but an estimation of staff time and additional resources will be expected. The consultancy will be looking to present the most cost effective solution.

• An overview of the expected outcomes of the plan, and how you will measure success?
