Thoughts on beginnings.

Beginning as I mean to go on.

Trying to begin a blog to start off well and early.

When I think about beginnings I find them a very lose and abstract thing. It seems straight forward at first. But requires many other things outside of just the word "begin." It needs motivation, drive and direction.

Many people respond apprehensive to beginnings as all people are wires differently. And the beginning of something is never the core of What something is. But people say first impressions count. They do but they do not last. As the relationship to the thing from the beginning grows in depth.

I see beginnings as an analysis period to see briefly what things are. Just like meeting new people. It is a time for many questions and showing the ins and outs of a subject. But doing it justice in the long run to find out more.

Once something has fully started the apprehension goes and you can engage in the subject completely or more purposely. Once you have found a drive to engage.

Title Tells Training. But Practice Proves Perfection

Be for yesterday's enjoyable Skype call, A was reading A Handbook on Reflections and Experiential Learning, by Jennifer Moon. I was thinking about my previous learning experiences and how I reflect on how that effects my teaching. Like teachers who never let you have hands on experience at something new the first lesson. But make you wait till 2 or 3 lessons in. I hated that. Hence I never do that. The topic in the 5pm Skype call was on similar ideas. A key point that stood out for us was the term discourse. -  Discourse or basically said a conversation with in our field which only we really understand as it focuses in on its finer details and concerns to help make our practice work better for us. Beyond our training. Many of us shared what fields we are trained in. But our training does not necessarily define what actual practice we are in now. It was expressed that training helps give a broad title to what we do or have learnt. But our practice is a focus of key routines whic...

Researching how to Research

Finally my internet is up and running. I've been running a round stealing internet to do parts of my work for module 2. This use of the internet has been about finding information about my inquiry. But as many realised. This module is not about doing work per say but more so planning. Planning how to plan to find something we don't know what we want to find but want to find something. Baffling stuff. But i like it. I have come up with my inquiry topic on creativity. Had may interesting conversations and read many details write ups and discussions on the topic. But this is not what i am suppose to be doing. What i am suppose to be doing and have been doing but it feels kind of weird, is researching how to research. The idea with researching with out any predetermined ideas or quickly found answers but how to look at it objectively and from many angles and considerations. Also looking at the ethical considerations of things with broad meanings. Things which could skew ide...
