BACK TO THE BOOKS!
...did I ever leave though?...The MAPP course doesn't take a break in your head because even on holidays you find yourself thinking about what you wrote, what you read and how you're integrating all these thoughts and ideas in your own practice and in everyday life.
Last term was really tricky for me in terms of understanding what was required of me, having enough time to read relevant bibliography and connect all the dots. I still haven't connected all the dots as the dots keep moving and changing (!). I guess that's a good thing. Knowledge is fluid and constantly moving.
I feel that I am now reaching a point somewhere in the middle - as suggested by Adesola's blog - whereby I'm in a routine of thoughts and actions and regularly searching and curious about new books and articles that will engage me.
Student engagement at MAPP still seems really far off at the moment, at least in my experience as I haven't been able to engage with more than one person last term, and only over essay practicalities. I'm hoping that can improve this term beyond me reading other people's blogs.
I'm looking forward to the exciting road ahead and to more learning experiences.
