– Reflection-in-action, reflection-on-action– Iteration between espoused theories
and theories-in-use – Learning systems
• Single-loop vs double-loop learning

• Optimise the right thing – not money– not proxies for learning
• Assessment is key– be like students:
focus on the assessment

• Underpin with theory• Close the loop • Optimise the right thing
– more, faster, better feedback
• Target learners & teachers– not (just) managers and
policymakers• Pursue openness & ethics
