CHAPTER A1
Learning to be Professional: Reflective thoughts on a life-time of trying
Professor John Cowan
My proposition: our own life experiences, from which we will have learnt what becoming professional means, can provide us with a fantastic resource from which to create good educational designs. This Chapter is based on my own reflections on how I learnt (and still learn) to become professional, in four different professional fields. Out of these reflections I have gradually extracted some general propositions and principles for educational designs, which I believe are more likely to be encouraging and effective in assisting learners to begin the process of becoming professional while they are studying in higher education.
