My 38 year learning log journey
Over one and a half million hand written words
I am not a naturally reflective person. My learning log gives me a structure for 'forced reflection', ensuring I get more value from the continuous flow of potentially development experiences real work and life provides.
In February 1987 I wrote my first learning log, and the most recently completed was number 2,290.
I am, truly, a lifelong learner. Do look over my learning log experiences and thoughts - I hope this helps.
My learning log is just one way of recording learning
Here are three samples from the seven files of the written log.

Two videos from my YouTube channel
These two videos provide insights around why and how I spend a very few minutes at a time reflecting upon, clarifying and recording professional learning that would, I know for sure would otherwise be lost.
