Health and Social Care
The LD Health and Social Care CoP is a community of practice for Learning Developers with an interest in Health and Social Care students. The community of practice acts as an online ‘hive-mind’ sharing information and ideas. Every month the COP carries out online asynchronous activities in which all participants are encouraged to participate. Members of the community are also encouraged to lead an activity which could be a discussion, a bring and share or anything else you can imagine.
The Learning Developer Health and Social Care Community of Practice will facilitate peer-based, collaborative learning between Learning Developers at all levels who have an interest in students of Health and Social Care. We recognise that these students have particular characteristics which may pose specific challenges for educators working in this area. The ‘social learning’ nature of communities of practice ensures that our capabilities can be developed collaboratively offering opportunities for new ways of working to be explored.
The Health and Social Care CoP is led by Anne-Marie Langford from University of Northampton and Maria King from Edinburgh Napier University.
