Risk‐taking and reflective learning

Abstract

This paper is the unanticipated outcome of an experiment with a creative approach to reflective learning undertaken by a community of reflective practitioners. In form and content it represents an attempt to re‐create an ‘adventure’, involving silence, sound and body language. Its rationale is the exploration of the conditions for engaging in reflective practices with an emphasis upon risk‐taking and chance and it employs physical, cognitive and affective perspectives as a means of examining what we might learn from reflection.
