This paper will
discuss the role of outdoor experiential
learning in the development of adults who
are participants in community leadership
programs in regional Victoria, Australia.
Discussion will be based on my experience
as an outdoor instructor/facilitator on
five such community leadership programs.
The emphasis will be on the power of experiential
learning in the outdoors for expanding individual's
perceptions of their own potential as leaders
in their local communities. It will also
explore the significance of the outdoor
setting in the process of individual and
social change in this context.

In the workshop
I will give a short overview of what recent
research on mathematics teaching is telling
us. But most of the time will be devoted
to doing mathematical activities in groups.
|
I will to focus
on the difference between instrumental and
relational understanding in mathematics
(R. Skemp). I want to show and discuss ways
of teaching and learning mathematics that
are active. Active learning increases the
possibility that the mathematical understanding
of the learner becomes relational.

Can using reflective
journals enhance experiential learning?
|
The
aim of this workshop is to grapple with
some of the issues concerning use of reflective
journals or diaries and their potential
role in aiding reflection on experience.
In keeping with the conference theme, my
focus will be on exploration of the relationship
between reflection and experience as part
of individual and social change.
|
I
hope we can think about questions such as:
what is a reflective journal? why keep one?
what does it look like? for whose benefit
is it? can it be assessed?
|
I
will share learning from my own experience
of reflective journals; having used them
for several years as both a student and
as a teacher. As a teacher I have used journals
with a variety of groups including initially
community work students and most recently
hospital consultants. I hope participants
will share their experiences to further
our collective thinking.
