Content and supplementary material

How will you use what you have learned today?

Make more videos.
Good for taking a step back from situations: to look more into reactions/gestures I would have assumed previously to be stereotypical/ritualistic.
To use video to engage other staff, to involve them more, to aid observation skills.
Develop video analysis technique and use to improve communication.
Take other people's opinions on board and use them in my practice. Be more aware of what can be picked up from video and how this can be used.
Take information back to other members of the Sensory Service. Make more use of video to analyse MDVI children in the region.
To use video analysis in school.
Encouraged to video more and use it with staff.

Pacing of course/event

1.9

 

What was best about the course/event?

Examples and experience of others.
Chance to discuss video with other practitioners.
The group dynamic - hearing other people's reactions/feedback.
Watching the videos as a group and discussing what we saw.
Exchange of ideas/shared practice.
Positive feedback and analysis was very useful; useful to share ideas and opinions.
The group discussion was very useful. I can see the value of video observation and will adopt a more analytical way of thinking.
Having an opportunity to discuss video with colleagues.
Sitting and analysing your own work.
Sharing video and practice.

What, if anything, could have been improved about the course?

Using micro-analysis in practice.
To use the micro-analysis sheets. Opportunity to discuss use of video analysis and how to train others.
More examples of Mary/Lindi's own work - perhaps with opportunity to fill out observation form.
Bit more about how to move on to develop on body signing or communication. Possibly suggested activities to video would help me.
Time to discuss what you would do next with a child.
People coming with an assessment question related to their video to focus/structure the discussion? [But discussion generated was very useful]

Any other comments regarding the course?

Half the day on discussion and analysis of video, and time to discuss its use.
Enjoyed the day and meeting other professionals.
