Review Discuss your responses with colleagues in small groups. Look for similarities and differences between you.


Learn Which beliefs can hinder you? What do you blame when you do not succeed? How does this affect you? Which beliefs can help you? How can you use more of them?


Apply Try and notice the impact of beliefs and blaming on your learning. When this happens what will you do differently? What do you know of examples that seem to work for you where you have managed beliefs and blaming differently?

LEARNING SITUATIONS – IN SCHOOL


This activity can help you think in detail about the different learning situations you meet in school. And it might help you to get more out of them!




Do Compare learning in school in the following situations:

  • two situations in which you are learning well

  • one situation where you are not learning well

  • a learning situation in school when you are not in lessons.

For each of the situations, think about the questions in the table and make some notes.

In what way













does the agenda

goals?













How do you go













about the













learning?













How do you feel













about the













learning?















Review What differences do you notice between the situations? What similarities do you see in the situations? Compare your answers with a friend’s. Are they similar or

different?




Learn Look at your notes and identify two or three ways in which the ‘learning well’ situations are different from the ‘not learning well’ situations.


Apply Can you use any of what you know about good learning situations to help you improve the not so good learning situation? Discuss this in a small group and decide what actions you might take.

LEARNING SITUATIONS – BEYOND SCHOOL


This activity can help you think about learning as a lifelong process – in other words the idea that learning does not stop after school! It can also help you in your skills of learning by doing research.




Do Design an interview to find out experiences and views of other people about learning in and out of school and after they left school, including learning in and out of the workplace.

What are they learning now? Where? Who with? And how is it similar to or different from the


learning they did
at school?

Use your interview to talk to a range of people, for example:



  • someone who has just left school

  • someone who has had more than one job

  • someone who is not in paid work

  • a retired person.



Review What happened? Did you have any surprises in what people said about learning?

What did it feel like asking these people?


Did you think your interview got the information you wanted?

If you did the activity ‘Learning – in school and out’, did what people said differ from what you said in that activity?




Learn What did you learn from people’s responses:



  • What and how people need in order to learn at different times?




  • How much learning people do after they leave school?

  • How learning changes over time?

  • Their view of learning?

What did you learn from this about doing research?


Apply What ideas are you having about your own learning after leaving school?
Redesign your interview to take account of what you have learned about doing this research.
You might want to extend this research to more people or to ask more questions.
