Reading Week 2

With only a minimal understanding and without putting it into practice, obviously double loop learning would be my preferred system of learning. It’s adaptabilty for change and progression are unquestionable by it’s creators. It makes sense to use a system that questions the role of framing and learning systems, allowing for creativity and reflexivity. Opposed to trial and error of old techniques in a bid to make those specific techniques more efficient. My problem, most likely stemming from a lack of undertstanding, lies in the implementation of a double loop learning system. Is it a self directed, conscious thought process everytime I raise a question to myself? Or is there a step by step process that I follow? Hopefully I can expand on this in future blog posts.

“The extent to which human reasoning, not just behavious, can become the basis for diagnosis and action”.
Double loop learning allows us to engage with others, make links with the general and particular, and explore basic orientations and values.

We then delve into Model I and Model II systems of learning.
Model I can be described by our implicit disposition to winning. It is defensive and is charged by our desire to move away from something rather than to something else.
Model II is dialogical, based around communication through shared leadership and includes the views and experiences of the participants rather than imposing a view upon them.
