Talking points – using provocative statements in collective learning

24^th Sept 9.30-11.30 (online) Free

24 places are available in this session. Places will be allocated on a first come, first allocated basis.
 

What is DEEP? 
DEEP is a co-production approach to gathering, exploring, and using diverse types of evidence in learning and development using story and dialogue-based methods. 

What the session will cover  

‘Talking Points’ are provocative statements that get people engaged in collective discussion and reflective learning about a particular subject. This approach supports participants to build their own understanding, rather than having new knowledge imposed on them. This works particularly well in areas of practice that might be contested, such as risk-taking. The session will explain the concept of Talking Points and provide practical methods including a set of exercises to explore risk and decision making in dementia care. The session will also explore the application of this method to children and family services. 

Who might benefit from the session? 
Talking points enable multiple views to be expressed and explored, working towards achieving wider understanding of complex topics and more balanced decision-making. Everyone working in social care who is interested in supporting reflective-learning and co-production will benefit from the session.
