Putting people in touch with powerful ideas
Really Learning is a network of independent academic developers whose aim is using theory to inform
practice and practice to inform theory. We workwith health care professionals and their organisations to enable them to take responsibility for developing
local solutions, for exploiting local opportunities and for working constructively with others in order to do so.
To this end we:
- offer HCPs with the tools they need if they are to analyse service delivery problems as effectively as they can diagnose clinical conditions
- enable HCPs to explore their decision making processes and to evaluate the evidence needed to inform service delivery decisions
- enable HCPs to become more effective at influencing others, at dealing with people they find difficult, and at making the most of their service resources.
In other words, Really Learning aims to offer Health Care Professionals opportunities to learn how to drive forward an NHS which is responsive to needs and which uses the best of modern methods - but really
learn.
Real learning involves :
- the complicated easy and the simple hard ( to find out more about this distinction just click)
- learning from theory and from experience
- learning about how to keep on learning.
We use the term academic developer to mean that we:
- use theory to inform practice, and use practice to develop theory
- use evidence - our approaches are based on evidence about teaching and learning, and the concepts we use are rooted in sound theory and supported by appropriate evidence
- encourage the generation of evidence, and promote discussion about the nature of evidence for different kinds of decision.
