Session Outline Key characteristics of M level work Embedding your practice and professional experience in wider theoretical and research context Being Critical Plenary

Characteristics of M level work What would you judge to be appropriate characteristics of M level work? Discuss with your neighbour Plenary Feedback

M-Level Engagement Critical awareness and synthesis Critical engagement with and evaluation of appropriate research and literature in the field Knowledge, understanding and the ability to apply research and enquiry techniques to your own practice-based problems/issues Effective communication of concepts, ideas and research

THEORETICAL PERSPECTIVE Critical engagement with broader research and writing within a particular area as well as drawing on your own experience and views as represented in personal theories.

CONTEXT PERSPECTIVE Considering national, regional, and institutional policy and resources and the expectations of key stakeholders (e.g. students, governors, staff, employers, accrediting bodies)

VALUES PERSPECTIVE National, institutional and personal/professional

Critical and Analytical Thinking adopt a sceptical attitude. There might be a number of reasons to accept simply what is written; we do not expect to be deceived, or feel unable to question a more knowledgeable person's point of view.

Being Critical being critical is not about being negative or derogatory. It is about looking at the positive and negative aspects, identifying the strengths and weaknesses of the argument in order to provide an objective account of the situation.

Being Critical Don't take anything for granted - including your own beliefs and expectations; critical thinking is needed in all areas of study.

A Checklist for being critical Who is the author? What is the source? Is the source credible? What is the main idea or general message? What specifically am I asked to believe/accept? What specific evidence does the author cite in support of his/her position? Is this evidence valid and convincing? Are there any alternative explanations based upon the evidence available? What are the main ideas that I have learned from this book/article?

Plenary Challenges? Where next?
