Session Overview:  

This presentation begins by differentiating between reflection and reflexivity, and encouraging the participant to think about how naturally they experience reflection. The relevance of reflexivity to different research paradigms is discussed, followed by an explanation of reflexivity as a dialectic process. Five variants of reflexivity will be identified.

This session will be divided into 3 sections. In the first third, Joan will provide a brief introduction, followed by a pre-recorded narrated PowerPoint (20 mins). When the PowerPoint is finished, participants will be divided into breakout rooms, to discuss the presentation, based on questions included on the last slide. Then, everyone will return to the main Teams meeting, with groups having the opportunity to feed back on their discussions, and to ask any questions that have been raised.

Learning Outcomes:  

  • Understanding of reflection and reflexivity.
  • Engage in your own reflective and reflexive practice.
