Reflective Learning: Facing up to the Challenges
This workshop provides the opportunity for those involved with reflective learning to engage in professional development, critical dialogue and knowledge generation. We want to hear the learner’s voice, both directly and vicariously through the contributions of teachers / researchers. We envisage a highly participative day; the intention is to generate a forum for constructive dialogue about reflective learning, its relationship with HR and HRD and with other professional areas within Business and Management. We welcome contributions from a wide range of teachers and researchers.
