Keeping it Real

1st Published in ReSource Magazine July 2004 - using clean questions, metaphor and systemic modelling with at-risk teenagers in Hackney. Republished as 'Breathing in Blue' as above

Learning for a Complex World - Surrey University - Learning to be Professional through a Life-wide Curriculum

Training Attention had a triple presence at this conference, presenting a paper on clean feedback as a tool for embedding professional practice and critical reflection, a paper on embedding professionalism into staff practise before attempting to embed it into student behaviour and alongside Julian Burton of Delta7 we were eliciting metaphors for what it means to be professional which he was drawing on the walls around us. 

One of our case-studies has just been published in The Enhancing Series - Student Centred Learning available by contacting hlst@brookes.ac.uk. Our chapter - PDP - Inspiring Capability outlines bringing Clean Questions and Systemic Modelling into a University Department as a Systemic Change process.

Using our Training Attention PDP series, over 1000 students started their academic year being asked "When you're learning @ your best, you're like what? and developing these metaphors to enhance their learning experience.
