Reflection - Colleague - involved in creating a PDP and eportfolio

Professional Colleague Danny Munnerley is completing an MA in Creative Media Practice from Bournemouth University.

It wouldn't normally be such a big deal except when I took a brief look at the program, I was taken aback by how much it seemed to model a good many things already presented in H808. It looks as if he`ll be doing a combination of “Action Research” and “professional development planning”. The same sort of PDP where you assemble evidence and conduct frequent reflection on that evidence (both on your own and with colleagues) to help you realize an eportfolio and forward looking plan.

Interesting to see this in action and in another context. The course may provide me with an outsider's view of eportfolios / pdp and professional practice that's being promoted in HE in the UK.

It will be interesting to get his responses and reactions on this - very useful for comparison, ideas and anecdotes!
