I finally got around to printing the Technical Currency TAFE material from the Intranet site. Some of the material is really useful, such as the “Getting Started: A guide to planning your professional development”, which is quite motivating and encourages reflection on current skills etc.
The “Suggested Activities for Technical Currency” also looks helpful, lots of ideas to motivate one to get involved!
The “Technical Currency Diary” is a bit disappointing though… looks more like a sign-off for superiors to make sure that professional development activities are being recorded… nothing about reflecting on the activities in a journal for your own development as a professional.
Either way, I’m inspired to set out my professional development plan in writing, and hopefully this journal will be a great place to develop and reflect on the ideas! I’m currently thinking of integrating some of the social-constructivist learning and blended-learning that I’m already doing, but to formalise or focus my learning… i guess just make it more intentional.
