Neurodevelopment Network - Lunch & Learn NZ Series

Responsive learning:
Learning together and working collaboratively with parents

Follow up session following last months presentation by Dr Cait Harvey, Occupational Therapist and Lecturer at Otago Polytechnic

12pm - 12.30pm  |  Tuesday 13 May, 2025  |  Hosted on Zoom

In this session, Dr Cait Harvey joins us for a knowledge translation session following her earlier presentation on her doctoral research "Responsive learning: Learning from and with each other".  

The session will start with a short overview of the responsive learning model followed by discussions about:

  • How does responsive learning relate to or resonate with your practice or context?
  • How might considering yourself as an intentional or cognisant co-learner with your clients change your clinical interactions?
  • How can we be better responsive learners in our practice with the people we work with?
