(TiME)
Many perspectives on reflection in
learning
Reflective Practice is a method of assessing our
own thoughts and actions, for the purpose of
personal learning and development (J. Moon)
What do we mean by “reflective
practice?”
Stephen Brookfield’s
concept of critical
reflection
David Boud’s ideas
about reflective
learning through
writing
Donald Schön’s
concepts
• Knowing-in-action
• Reflection-on-action
• Reflection-in-action
Reflection in the Kolb
Experiential Learning Cycle
Through concrete experience,
people grow to have a greater
range of emotions
Through reflective observation,
people develop increased
awareness and capacity to “see”
Through abstract conceptualization, people
develop more sophisticated conceptualization
schemes
Through active experimentation, people develop an
expanded repertoire of behaviors

reflection

Making Sense

Reflective Practice for Teaching in Medicine –
2017
An organizational development approach
to change
Belief that positively-oriented questions
can frame how we think about issues
University of Virginia created a Center for
Appreciative Practice about 10 years ago
The book we are using contains
questions they have developed for use in
their work.
Appreciative Inquiry
Foundational beliefs:
• People have unique gifts, skills to contribute
• Organizations are human social systems and have unlimited
relational capacity
• Images of future are socially created and when articulated,
guide individual and collective actions
• In communication, people can shift from problem analysis to
productive possibilities
Appreciation + Inquiry
• Appreciate: affirm, recognize, value
• Inquire: discover, ask, study, learn
Fully Affirmative
• Focus on organization at its best – past, present & future
• Focus on possibilities not problems
Inquiry-Based
• The “art of the question”: craft unconditionally positive
questions about organizational relevance and vitality
Improvisational
• No singular methodology although based on principles and
follows 4-D framework
Paradoxical
• It does not aim to change. It aims to identify existing
strengths and hopes in order to amplify the positive
What’s Different about AI?
From change focused on deficits
to change focused on the
positive
Deficit-Based Change Positive Change
Identified problem Affirmative Topics
Selective inclusion of people Whole system
Problem diagnosis and root cause
analysis
Discovery of positive core,
organization’s narratives
Brainstormed list of alternatives Dreams of a better world and
organization
Best solution to resolve the problem Design to realize dreams and
human aspirations
Capacity to implement and measure
the plan
Destiny of ongoing positive
change
How Our Course is Designed
 Eight sessions to provide reading time
 Each session has two facilitators
 Lead the discussion
 Use the AI questions selected, or choose others
 Can add questions to pose to the group to encourage
discussion
 Plan to be flexible and “go with the flow”
 Facilitators write the blog forum topic afterwards; other
class members respond with comments (replies)
before next week
 End of course reflective paper on learning
Goals for Tonight
Get to know each other
Review the readings and schedule for suitability
with your own goals and purposes for learning
Selection of facilitators for each session
Use of concept mapping through Cmap – whole
class exercise at the end of in-class discussions

to better understand the clinician-patient relationship.
Balind, M. (1964/1986) . The doctor, his patient, and the
illness. London, UK: Pitman Medical, 2nd ed.
We have Balint Group facilitators at VCU, including Dr.
Steve Crossman and Mary Lee Magee
What is a Balint Group?
How We Can Use Concept
Mapping
 Whole class exercise at the end of facilitated
discussions – last 45 minutes of class time
 End of course final session to examine where
we’ve been and what you’ve learned
 Use of CMap, online app for creating robust
concept maps
 Read about CMap tools:

Today’s tasks
 Hopes and goals you have for the course
 Proposing of ground rules for conversations
 Overview of course/establishing Rampage blog
accounts / use of Blackboard
 Selection of facilitators – names / week / topics
 Facilitators review the AI questions for relevance
 Small group dialogue based on questions posed for
tonight
 Use of Concept Mapping with CMap
Questions for the start of the
class
 What do you find most meaningful about your work
as a physician? (Charon)
 What was the highlight of your medical
education/training? (Appreciative Inquiry p. 89)
 What qualities do the people you admire possess?
Without being humble, in what ways do you exhibit
these same qualities? (AI, p. 91)
