 | Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman Good evening everyone. Am probably mostly lurking this evening. But I have been using @TRAMMCPD so interested to see about the updates and how others using the resources etc :-) #otalk |
| Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny Thanks @SLawsonOT really looking forward to tonight’s chat #OTalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ Right thats enough from me... @SLawsonOT & @hearled its over to you! #OTalk https://t.co/91tFHAjbig |
| OTalk @OTalk_ Question 1... #OTalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT RT @OTalk_: If there are any newbies or lurkers out there give me a shout if you get stuck or lost along the way! #OTalk https://t.co/4H6Sc… |
| Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny Increasingly I'm relying on virtual learning communities, they are accessible, flexible and frequently include a wider audience #OTalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ @TokunboTweetz You can click on the #OTalk hastag and it will show you all the latest tweets and questions, just hit reply and add your response. Dont forget to include the hashtag in all your tweets so others can follow them. |
 | #Mynameis Jeni @Jeni_woods_OT @SLawsonOT A mixture of both... I find that I am increasing using social media #OTalk |
 | Sarah Sharland @SarahSharland19 @OTalk_ Both! I work on my own so end up with a combination #OTalk |
| deb_OT @dmay_ot @OTalk_ As a student a lot of my learning is face to face - with my cohort, educators, other OTs I meet but I also learn from friends in other professions (espec education) and have learned so much from #OTalk, online groups etc |
| Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman A mixture for me. And variety is good, I find. I would also say that some are very specific to my job role, some more general to OT, and some wider than that e.g. AHP. individual, one-to-one, small, and large groups too. Meetings, webinars, emails, social media... #OTalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ Lurkers are always welcome! #OTalk |
 | Louise @Louisepenny87 @OTalk_ @Kirstie_OT @TRAMMCPD @SLawsonOT @hearled I haven’t joined in a #otalk for ages, but looking forward to this one. I’m Louise, I work in Neurorehab, but have recently worked in a HASU and ASU Stroke service https://t.co/sK0roakLiU |
 | Deb Hearle @hearled Sorry I’m late @SLawsonOT #OTalk, here now |
 | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT Hello #OTalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ @Louisepenny87 @Kirstie_OT @TRAMMCPD @SLawsonOT @hearled Hey Louise & your friendly bear! #OTalk |
 | Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess @SLawsonOT I think virtual is taking a much more active role in learning, especially as purse strings are tightened in the NHS. There is so much at our finger tips for learning online though and you can learn something new most times you look... #otalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT Q2: If you are the only Occupational Therapist in your team how do you ensure that you are not professionally isolated and keep up to date with your CPD? #OTalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @SarahSharland19 @OTalk_ Hi SArah, are you the only OT within a team? #otalk |
| #Mynameis Jeni @Jeni_woods_OT @SLawsonOT Also my learning communities are expanding across a range of professions #OTalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @preston_jenny Yes, the networking opportunities are huge in the online world #otalk |
| Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman Similarly for me I think atm being a preceptor - supervision, our preceptorship days with a group of AHPs, other team members - I agree, and then sort of coming out of that to see what others far and wide are doing or know about :-) #otalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ Question 2... #OTalk |
| Sarah Sharland @SarahSharland19 @SLawsonOT @OTalk_ Yes, so I get a lot of learning from MDT colleagues but have to find my own OT stuff #OTalk |
 | Lynne Merrett @ot_lynne Just lurking this evening, hoping to get some ideas #otalk |
 | Holly Graham @HollyGtheOT @SLawsonOT A mix of both too. We have in services, journal club and lots of informal ways of learning from each other. I also like to look a lot at journals independently. I try to use social media too but not such a fanatic for it! #OTalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @Jeni_woods_OT Hi Jeni, what do you find that social media offers you as a learning community? #otalk |
 | Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie @SLawsonOT Apart from online, i feel like my "learning community" is small- whilst in theory I always learn from other professions etc, I would love to have more indepth learning on an Evidence based way.. #OTALK |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SLawsonOT Mostly virtual- you guys, and then a couple groups I am associated with in AOTA. #otalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @Louisepenny87 @OTalk_ @Kirstie_OT @TRAMMCPD @hearled Hi Louise, welcome to #otalk |
| Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie @SLawsonOT I also find myself going to #OTALK and FB OT groups more for advice, as i feel like they are more on my wavelength with up to date/passionate learning. |
 | Sensory Integration Education @SINetwork A lot of our courses are online now so we use online forums to develop learning communities #OTalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @BillWongOT Hi Bill #otalk |
 | Bethany Marshall @BethjmOT Haven’t participated in #OTalk for a long time, so I’m back! This is the first time I’ve heard about @TRAMMCPD so looking forward to finding out more. Beth here, 3rd year student from Coventry Uni 👋🏼😃 |
| OTalk @OTalk_ @SallyScottRobe1 @Kirstie_OT @TRAMMCPD @SLawsonOT @hearled Brilliant to have you joining us. If you include the #OTalk hashtag in all your tweets people can see your contributions & chat with you 👍🏼 |
| Deb Hearle @hearled I think one of the most important things to avoid professional isolation is developing a support network such as mentorship - lots of opportunities #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SLawsonOT Being motivated and be reflective about what areas I need to improve on. #otalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk |
| Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess @SarahSharland19 @SLawsonOT @OTalk_ I know that feeling :) #otalk |
 | Carolina Cordero @colourful_ot @OTalk_ @Kirstie_OT @TRAMMCPD @SLawsonOT @hearled I'm late but I'm here! Just started back at college yesterday so I'm a bit all over the place but looking forward to tonight's chat #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @hearled: I think one of the most important things to avoid professional isolation is developing a support network such as mentorship -… |
| Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie @OTalk_ @Kirstie_OT @TRAMMCPD @SLawsonOT @hearled #OTALK https://t.co/P9OYDuAhKD |
| #Mynameis Jeni @Jeni_woods_OT @SLawsonOT I think it’s the opportunity to get information quickly or the opportunity to ask for support more readily. It’s also easy to find contacts and or subjects that are of interest #OTalk |
 | Lelanie @LelanieBrewer @preston_jenny Me too #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @hearled Or a community of practice. For me, being in community of leaders is actually very beneficial because I got a group of motivated peers that we got to work on projects together. #otalk |
| Deb Hearle @hearled @Scrumpess @SLawsonOT I agree, so many invaluable communities and learning opps on line #OTalk |
| Louise @Louisepenny87 @SLawsonOT A combination of both. Learning from your team is invaluable, but virtual learning can be so much broader, and more accessible. I participated in a MOOC(?) a couple of years ago from @OT_SHU which was a great learning platform #OTalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @Scrumpess Hi Hannah, I agree with you. Could you say something about how you manage the shear wealth of information available for your learning? #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Jeni_woods_OT: @SLawsonOT I think it’s the opportunity to get information quickly or the opportunity to ask for support more readily. I… |
| Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny Although I'm not professionally isolated my role is fairly unique so I benefit hugely from access to virtual learning and CPD opportunities across all 4 pillars of the career development framework @SetG75 #OTalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ @hearled @SLawsonOT Hey @hearled #OTalk https://t.co/av5xCHPLWp |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT This is really interesting that virtual encourages more active engagement in learning. Do others agree? #otalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk |
| Lynne Merrett @ot_lynne Re Q2: I have some virtual contact but do try to make the time to go to events to meet other OT's and also meet up for peer support with a friend who is an OT #otalk |
| Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess @SINetwork There are so many online courses now which makes it so much more convenient to be able to do in your own time and not having to add in the expense of travel/accommodation. I do find out about most of mine via social media... it seems to have been a game-changer #otalk |
| Louise @Louisepenny87 @Scrumpess @SLawsonOT And always a risk that what you are learning isn’t the most robust, so can take more time to think about the credentials #OTalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT Q3: How important do you consider your learning communities to be for your CPD? What do you gain personally and/or collectively from your learning communities? #OTalk |
| Carolina Cordero @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT As a student I suppose my most obvious learning community (aside from #OTalk) is my classmates - especially as we get further into the course it feels like we're learning from each other as well as just learning together |
| Deb Hearle @hearled @BethjmOT @TRAMMCPD Welcome Beth #OTalk @TRAMMCPD |
 | Kirstie @Kirstie_OT 🙌🏼 #OTalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @BethjmOT @TRAMMCPD Hi Beth, there is lots more information on our website https://t.co/vzsFJtzAsB #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @ot_lynne: Re Q2: I have some virtual contact but do try to make the time to go to events to meet other OT's and also meet up for peer s… |
| OTalk @OTalk_ Question 3... #OTalk |
| Kirstie @Kirstie_OT This was a key theme within my research findings. #Twitter4CPD #OTalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @OTalk_ Hi Sally, yes, virtual world can feel a bit overwhelming. #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SLawsonOT 10/10 in importance. Being in my kind of clinical environment, sometimes I need external motivation to improve myself as an OT. #otalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @colourful_ot @OTalk_ @Kirstie_OT @TRAMMCPD @hearled Hi Carolina #otalk we're just finding out about peoples thoughts and experiences of their learning communities and how they can help with learning and CPD #otalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ @SallyScottRobe1 It becomes easier the more you engage #OTalk |
| #Mynameis Jeni @Jeni_woods_OT @SLawsonOT Really important - which I have only recently come to realise in the past few years. My learning communities enable to be test out new ways of thinking / or critically reflect in a safe supportive environment. #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SLawsonOT @OTalk_ For me, that will be a virtual community + taking on a project that is overwhelming is very overwhelming. #otalk |
| Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess @SLawsonOT I think it is about really considering how much it will benefit you and focusing on those and shelving others. Sometimes I pass things on to others who may be better suited/have a deeper interest & then through collaboration learn through them later/diseminated learning #otalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT Do you have any tips for finding relevant contacts and information #otalk |
| Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny I enjoy the networking, the challenge of different perspectives makes me think and reflect, and all the references and resources are really helpful #OTalk |
| Sally Scott-Roberts @SallyScottRobe1 @hearled #OTalk I am increasingly using online as well as face to face. It has taken me a while to move beyond my technological phobias to be able to make the most of what is out there. |
| Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie @OTalk_ Learning communities are what keep me up to date and challenged in the way i think. It leads to me finding new ways of looking at things and considering my gaps in knowledge/possible ways to fill the gaps #OTALK |
| OTalk @OTalk_ Could be flipped... some who are tech savvy may feel less confident in approaching someone in person or their verbal debate skills? #OTalk Different learning styles/preferences maybe? |
 | Real Bread Campaign @RealBread Is #RealBread #baking therapeutic? https://t.co/4TLDabZoO4 #otalk #mentalhealth #breadweeek #gbbo https://t.co/oq9DsUhLVu |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @LelanieBrewer @preston_jenny Yes, so many opportunities to learn from each other #otalk |
| Carolina Cordero @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT I think for me it sort of levels the playing field in terms of who can participate - I think if I was in a room full of qualified and experienced OTs I might feel a bit intimidated about contributing to the conversation but joining in on Twitter chats feels different #OTalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ 💚 #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Scrumpess: @SLawsonOT I think it is about really considering how much it will benefit you and focusing on those and shelving others. So… |
| Carolina Cordero @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT And that's a great learning experience for me #OTalk |
| deb_OT @dmay_ot @ot_lynne I think meeting up with others is so important. There aren't *many* online spaces where dialogues are completely open, threads can be ravelled and and information challenged. #OTalk is quite special in that regard! |
| #Mynameis Jeni @Jeni_woods_OT @SLawsonOT I tend to look at using hashtags or search on key terms to find information, groups, webinars, contacts. #OTalk |
| Louise @Louisepenny87 @SLawsonOT I don’t think this question needs to have the caveat of being a lone OT (although I’m sure that has its challenges). A similar question would be about how do you ensure you have a broad professional network and are proactive with your own CPD #OTalk |
| Deb Hearle @hearled @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT Learning from each other is so important #OTALK which is why it is always invaluable for all students to participate in learning activities |
| Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie I was at my "Promoting evidence based practice" group the other day, professionals all interested in promoting EB yet none of them knew about #otalk or FB OT groups.. 🤔..!! I didn't understand how they manage...! |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @Louisepenny87 @OT_SHU There are some brilliant free online learning communities including MOOCs, FutureLearn which offer a huge array of subjects. Does anyone know of or have used any others #otalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT Q4: What tips would you give for people finding and/or setting up learning communities? #OTalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ Question 4... #OTalk |
| Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman Crucial, really. 1 thing is experiences of others. Helps you feel less alone/like you're doing it "wrong" etc, but also find out & reflect on what others did & what could work for you. & elps focus your learning & be efficient e.g. asking for particular advice #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @colourful_ot: @SLawsonOT I think for me it sort of levels the playing field in terms of who can participate - I think if I was in a roo… |

| Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie @SLawsonOT @Louisepenny87 @OT_SHU I mentored someone (@howell_lucy ) who i believe introduced both to me, i couldn't believe how useful they are!! #OTALK |
| Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess @SLawsonOT I have now set up a wider OT CPD network in the trust to ensure I get chance to collaborate with others and we keep up to date in current practice. I am focusing this on the #RCOTCareerFramework at the moment to give real professional focus #OTalk |
| Lynne Merrett @ot_lynne @dmay_ot Yes, hurray for #OTalk! |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @preston_jenny @SetG75 Yes, and there seems to be more and more people using the CDF to identify and engage in learning and hopefully going on to apply the learning in practice #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT True- in my own community of leaders group in AOTA, pretty much the members involved have roughly same experience level. So working with motivated contemporaries is a plus. #otalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ What?! How can they not know about us 😂 #OTalk |
| Bethany Marshall @BethjmOT @SLawsonOT At university, my learning community is mainly face to face learning with other students! I am very engaged in social media, following and networking has allowed me to access information shared by other OTs and also join in with #OTalk. Great way to learn from home! #OTalk |

| Deb Hearle @hearled @SLawsonOT It’s also useful to have someone who is happy to challenge your ideas in a constructive way #OTALK I learn so much more thorough discussion and debate |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SLawsonOT I think passion and compatibility is a nice combination. #otalk |
| Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny Definitely agree with that #OTalk I used to be a bit wary but my one hour of CPD on a Tuesday between 8-9 pm is now one of my most meaningful occupations |

| deb_OT @dmay_ot @ciderwithsophie @SLawsonOT @Louisepenny87 @OT_SHU @howell_lucy I tried to introduce twitter and #OTalk on my last placement. Failed there but did get them using #TRAMmCPD!! I quite enjoyed being able to pass knowledge back to my educators who taught me so much! |
| Louise @Louisepenny87 @SLawsonOT @OT_SHU A little unclear about wether these class as learning communities, but I always encourage people to use the stroke core competencies e-learning and the SCI elearning. I have also used the coursera app and the understanding cancer elearning #OTalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ @ciderwithsophie The team pride themselves on being unavoidable... get like to get around 😂 #OTalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @Louisepenny87 @Scrumpess Yes, how can we ensure that what we are learning is evidence based and robust #otalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @hearled @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT Yes- that was why having weekly chats with you guys is beneficial for me- both networking and learning. I know networking will come into play much later when I attend an RCOT conference. #otalk |

| Sally Scott-Roberts @SallyScottRobe1 @SLawsonOT @Louisepenny87 @OT_SHU #OTalk i have recently undertaken two free short course on FutureLearn, they were very accessible. Both carefully integrated opportunities for online discussion which really did provide opportunity to talk to an array of other professionals. |
| Deb Hearle @hearled @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT That said, students or novices often make us more experienced staff think as you ask the questions that others forget to ask #otalk #students |
| Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie @dmay_ot @SLawsonOT @Louisepenny87 @OT_SHU @howell_lucy Well done! I always like it when students can keep us up to date too!! #OTALK |
| Louise @Louisepenny87 @SallyScottRobe1 @SLawsonOT @OT_SHU I need to check out FutureLearn! #OTalk |

| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @colourful_ot Yes, learning from each other and learning together, challenging each other in a supportive environment, sharing ideas and reflections. What sort of other less obvious learning communities are you a part of too? #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @hearled @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT And I like having fieldwork/placement students because of the same purpose. #otalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT Q5: How do you know when you are learning something which could be CPD? #OTalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ Wow @SLawsonOT sets a good pace, we are now halfway through tonights #OTalk. Keep those ideas & thoughts coming folks! https://t.co/4c6PfS6AiW |

| Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT Good point, but the key thing to remember is that we are all learning. Dinosaurs like me learn so much from all the fresh and new ideas whether on line or in person #OTalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SLawsonOT When we really wanted to take some time to reflect on what just happened. #otalk |
| Carolina Cordero @colourful_ot @hearled @SLawsonOT I was volunteering at a conference recently and got the chance to take part in several of the workshops, I was surprised at how happy so many of the attendees were about the idea of a student being involved and being able to offer a different viewpoint 😁 #OTalk |

| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @Scrumpess This is really interesting and is another element of TRAMm Station TELL. About sharing planning and disseminating learning #otalk |
| Louise @Louisepenny87 @SLawsonOT If I’m learning it, and able to apply it now, or in the fairly near future in some way #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot @hearled @SLawsonOT And organizing a TEDx talk actually is a very unique CPD opportunity for me. I get to be really front and center of our role as community partners! #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @Louisepenny87: @SLawsonOT If I’m learning it, and able to apply it now, or in the fairly near future in some way #OTalk |
| Carolina Cordero @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT I think this has come up in an #OTalk before! I suppose if you can show you learned something from it that you can apply to your work in the future then it's CPD? |
 | Toks Odutayo @TokunboTweetz @SLawsonOT The certificate at the end 😏😜.. just kidding. I think learning that can be translated into practice, enhance practice or contributes to a particular way of thinking in relation to practice ensures CPD? #OTalk |
| Louise @Louisepenny87 @dmay_ot @SLawsonOT Don’t undervalue learning that confirms that you are doing the right thing #OTalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT having problems keeping up due to slow internet #otalk |
| Deb Hearle @hearled @SLawsonOT I stop working on automatic pilot, it makes me think and explore #otalk |
| Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman Agreed! #OTalk |
| deb_OT @dmay_ot @Louisepenny87 @SLawsonOT That's a really good point. Thanks! #Otalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT Q6: Do you actively consider how you are applying your learning in your practice? We have another #OTalk booked on 23 October to explore this question in more depth |
| Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess @SLawsonOT If something has made you reflect on yourself, your practice or processes then it is CPD. Whether this has made you change how you do things or not... sometimes, it is just as nice to know that we are doing it right :) #otalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ Question 6... #OTalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @Louisepenny87 What about if it's something you learn which you don't apply for a long time? #otalk I'm really interested in this, it is often something people ask, 'how do I know what to record for CPD if I don't know when I'll use it' #otalk |
| Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny When it changes my practice or helps me make sense of my thinking and decision making. Impact is important so I'm always thinking how will this make a difference #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SLawsonOT For me in terms of learning about leadership, I would actually take moments to reflect, and then pass on such lessons to anybody who wants to learn from such too. #otalk |
| Sally Scott-Roberts @SallyScottRobe1 @SLawsonOT @colourful_ot #OTalk Whilst not related to academic development I do seem to find myself on sites such as pinterest in search of new resources to use with the children I work with and getting far too overexcited about being able to modify them to use with a specific individual. |
 | OT Child (Kat Carruthers) @OT_Child @SLawsonOT If the learning, theory or discussion is then linked to an action whether that is reflection or leading to practice change. I don’t think CPD is passive #OTalk |
| Sarah Sharland @SarahSharland19 @OTalk_ Students! Networking, attending conferences, email groups, journals, magazines, connecting with friends I studied with. #OTalk |
| Louise @Louisepenny87 @SLawsonOT Interesting question. I guess, if HCPC pulled me up to audit, would I use a piece of evidence that was something that I wasn’t using right now but I may do in 5 years - probably not. But I would certainly bank the knowledge and save it for later #OTalk |
| Deb Hearle @hearled @TokunboTweetz @SLawsonOT Hi Toks ....... 😂 back to the importance of applying learning again #OTALK |
| OTalk @OTalk_ Interesting point! #Otalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @dmay_ot Good point Deb, and Louise is right about sometimes confirming you're doing the right thing but sometimes it might also be that you need to stop doing something because you learn there is better way #otalk does that make sense in a tweet??? |
| Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie @SLawsonOT I never properly take the time to sit and think about it analytically. However I think this has been helped by completing a module on CPD as it has got me thinking about everything in that way. #OTALK |
| Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess @SLawsonOT @Louisepenny87 If it goes in your toolbox of tricks, it is CPD, whether it is to be used now or at a later date. It is then CPD again when you go back to it and pull it out, reflect on it and check if it is still current #otalk |
| Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman I have been trying to make sure I return to my reflections, activities etc to record how I have applied my learning. The @TRAMMCPD resources help me do this - I write in red text on the trail and tracker that I need to return to do this until it is done! #OTalk |
 | Carol Percy @DrCarolPercy RT @OTalk_: Interesting point! #Otalk https://t.co/0JrwY7rcyh |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @ciderwithsophie oooh, interesting, can you expand on the feeling something? #otalk |
| deb_OT @dmay_ot @SLawsonOT @Louisepenny87 I think this is especially valid for students. Everything we learn will inform/influence future practice but you can't reasonably record everything as CPD #OTalk |

| Sarah Sharland @SarahSharland19 @OTalk_ Network, network, network. I went through the company email address book and found other OTs at the other end of the country. I set up an email group so we can share ideas and practice, and to problem solve. I’ve met others at conferences etc #OTalk |
| Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT Exactly!! That's something we can go wrong with sometimes e.g. in my competencies at the moment it is having to remind myself to reinforce WHAT HAVE I LEARNT FROM THAT AND HOW AM I APPLYING IT #OTALK |

| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @Louisepenny87 Yes, you'll often find that others are happy that someone is taking the lead, as soem tweeted earlier we are all learning together and from each other #otalk |
| Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny I think it is perfectly reasonable for learning to occur over time, a bit like longitudenal research. Those deeper reflections need time so don't rush it #OTalk |
| OT Child (Kat Carruthers) @OT_Child @SLawsonOT Yes! Touching on last week’s subject, keeping a research diary to track decision making processes has made me more proactive in utilising and analysing outcomes of learning/CPD. Another positive for research education. It is a unique skill in itself #OTalk |
| Sarah Sharland @SarahSharland19 @OTalk_ Yes! I signed up for an online CPD profile and because I pay monthly, it really motivates me to reflect on my learning experiences, whether formal or not #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SarahSharland19 @OTalk_ Yes- and in my level now, that means having means to do a TEDx event. It is such a hard project and any connections I make actually led me to somewhere closer to my goal! #otalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @SarahSharland19 @OTalk_ Yes- I know the late Terry Olivas De La O left a strong legacy for us OT community in terms of anti bullying and sharing #valueofOT to public. I literally thought about her work from time to time and her mission has become my professional mission. #otalk |
| Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny That's a valid point as of course HCPC are interested in the impact of your learning #OTalk |
| Louise @Louisepenny87 @SLawsonOT Yes!! My PDR is where the majority of my CPD is documented in a way that others would understand. Although they can be very separate, I like to think I am being efficient by as much as possible allowing them@to be one and the same #OTalk |
| Carolina Cordero @colourful_ot @ciderwithsophie @SLawsonOT When I write reflections I use a structure that makes those points very explicit so I have to think about them! My reflections have 4 sections: what happened, how did it go, what did I learn from it, what will I do next time #OTalk |

| Deb Hearle @hearled @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT Absolutely .... Interprofessional learning is so valuable, but to make the most of it individuals have to overcome stereotyped perceptions and really want to understand and question others roles as well as their own #OTALK #IPE #CAIPE |
| OT Child (Kat Carruthers) @OT_Child @SLawsonOT Being self-employed and currently relatively isolated professionally I use CPD as a main marker along with self motivation for my own self appraisal. To me they are inseparable. #OTalk |

| Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT Which reflection template do you use? Whilst I have lots with prompts, sometimes i still don't find them particularly useful, often have to come back to them to analyses properly. #OTALK |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @hearled @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT What people don’t know about me organizing a TEDx event is- this is truly a multidisciplinary collaboration. I have to learn a bunch of different knowledge that I otherwise wouldn’t have exposed to. #otalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @SarahSharland19 @OTalk_ Have you also connected with your @theRCOT regional/local groups? #otalk They can be a great way to network |
| Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman Great :-) Yes I think it will help make it more explicit and means I/we have to address it in order to go through all the parts of TRAMm. Sometimes I can also set a specific date I will return to it, if I know something specific is coming up I will be applying it in #OTalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT RT @ciderwithsophie: @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT Exactly!! That's something we can go wrong with sometimes e.g. in my competencies at the mome… |
 | Simon Jacques @JacqusieOT @SLawsonOT I don't have regular appraisals so I keep my records as up to date as possible for when one happens. I find it hard getting all my reflections together with all my CPD events and work though and need to find a good system to get it all in the same place! #OTalk |
| Sarah Sharland @SarahSharland19 @SLawsonOT @OTalk_ @theRCOT I have indeed 😊 #OTalk |
| Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny Yes to appraisal but probably not enough re monitoring #OTalk |
| Louise @Louisepenny87 @SLawsonOT @SarahSharland19 @OTalk_ @theRCOT And join the committee too! It’s a great way to keep learning and network within your local area / specialty #Otalk |
| Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess @SLawsonOT @Louisepenny87 Folders (on desktop and emails) I'm forever emailing myself with things I've found. Wish I had a better way, but at the moment, it works. Its moved with me between trusts over the years with no problems & lets me revisit things I forgot about. The power of the internet :) #otalk |

| Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie @SLawsonOT Do you mean checking that your CPD meets anything within your appraisal? At the moment i don't think there is anything formally in our appraisals about CPD (or EBP) 😱 but we have something called "stretch objectives" which is more personal, which is where i put about CPD #OTALK |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Louisepenny87 @SLawsonOT @SarahSharland19 @OTalk_ @theRCOT I feel the same way about volunteering to serve in the Representative Assembly. I appreciate understanding the AOTA structure a lot better because of this experience. #otalk |

| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @Louisepenny87 16 years that's a long time. I think that's often the tricky bit, it is often impossible to know when we'll need/have the opportunity to apply new learning in practice #otalk Whilst we can learn relevant to our sphere of work there are always other things we learn along the way |
| OT Child (Kat Carruthers) @OT_Child @BillWongOT @hearled @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT It’s amazing how unrelated professions can still be successful for CPD. I learned just as much as director of a photography company and print magazine about myself as an OT than I do on OT specific training. Life experiences can be CPD it depends what you take from it #OTalk |
| Lucy Howell @howell_lucy @ciderwithsophie @SLawsonOT @Louisepenny87 @OT_SHU Oh! Late to the party and my ears are burning! #otalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT Q: 8 Last question, what do you think the positives and/or negatives might be of linking CPD to your appraisal process? #OTalk |
| Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny I find Johns model of reflection helpful as it makes me reflect on my emotions #OTalk |
| deb_OT @dmay_ot @Scrumpess @SLawsonOT @Louisepenny87 I've discovered onenote for this. It's on my laptop, my tablet and my phone so I always have access to tonnes of resources. #otalk |
| Carolina Cordero @colourful_ot @hearled @ciderwithsophie @SLawsonOT I hadn't thought of that - I like writing quick reflections so bringing in the literature seems a little daunting but it would definitely add a whole other level of learning to it 🙂 #OTalk |
| Louise @Louisepenny87 @SLawsonOT @JackiePottleOT Sharing with others is amazing at increasing your understanding. Open discussion and Q&A hep you learn from other perspectives #Otalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ Final question, 8... #OTalk |

| Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess @SLawsonOT I find the appraisal process a good way to make me pull everything together from the year & showcase achievements. By setting goals in the appraisal it also gives me opportunities to participate in CPD. If you want funding for a course, managers want it on your appraisal #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OT_Child @hearled @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT I actually already heard a rumor that this will pad my resume as being in an OT conference planning committee in my future. The only question then would be- will I be interested to join? #otalk |
| Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie @colourful_ot @hearled @SLawsonOT I find the critical analysis format bringing in evidence does seem to have a deeper impact for my learning/goals for future. All seems to come together better. I look at my reflections using standard templates and they aren't comparable anymore! So fascinating #OTALK |
| Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny And the RCOT Specialist Sections are another great opportunity for CPD @RCOT_Louise #OTalk |
| Deb Hearle @hearled @ciderwithsophie @SLawsonOT It’s also about ensuring your appraisal works for you .... CPD should not only be linked but should inform future goals #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OT_Child @hearled @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT And technically I still have to use my OT skills for my TEDx curator role. After all, I know there is internal expectation of picking a strong OT speaker for my event. 🤓 #OTalk |
| Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman Negatives: my appraisal goals are quite specific to my role and also the Trust and it's values and priorities, so I like to do CPD and link it to more generally my development as an OT as well. Positives: helps provide well-presented and though-out evidence with a focus #otalk |

Our group (IreIFH - Irish Interdisciplinary Forum for Healthcare which is a terribly long name :P ) is planning social events as well as learning events so that students have the chance to get to know each other and challenge the perceptions we might have #OTalk |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT Thank you everyone for joining in tonight's #OTalk |
| Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie @hearled @SLawsonOT Appraisals are for a whole different chat..!! The main goals are all driven by the directorate, despite appraisal training specifying they should be specific to you (!!) #OTALK 🤦♀️ |
| Sensory Integration Education @SINetwork A positive will be demonstrating learning, critical thinking etc but it can be a negative if you weren’t able to complete your agreed CPD for one reason or another. However there should be extenuating circumstances then #OTalk |
| Hannah Silcock @Scrumpess @colourful_ot @ciderwithsophie @SLawsonOT That sounds similar to the one I use "What? So What? Now What?" So simple, but so effective for me #otalk |
| Louise @Louisepenny87 @SLawsonOT A positive = ease, lack of duplication and therefore both more likely to be thorough. A negative = it could be restrictive, and not very inspirational. And potentially not focused on you enough #Otalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ Well thats our official #OTalk hour up! HUGE thanks to @SLawsonOT & @hearled for a great topic, ever the Twitter Pros! |
| Deb Hearle @hearled @preston_jenny And Fish and Twinn really makes you challenge your own thoughts and actions #OTALK which can be uncomfortable but is important #reflection |
| #Hellomynameis Sarah @SLawsonOT @PurcellCath @OTalk_ I agree, it's important to recognise it as such and record the important elements #otalk |

| Sophie is my name. @ciderwithsophie @SLawsonOT Positives- links it all together and ensures CPD is the backbone throughout evidencing what you've done that year. Negative- appraisals aren't necessarily "you" based/may not have the freedom required #OTALK |
| Simon Jacques @JacqusieOT @SLawsonOT Appraisals ususally look at future plans and the best way to look forward sometimes is to consolidate what you've done and learned previously and what you would like to do to fill CPD gaps for further development and learning... basically it's all good 🙂#OTalk |

| OTalk @OTalk_ Dont forget participating in an #OTalk can contribute towards your CPD & hopefully tonights topic will have given you some ideas about implementing or sharing your learning. https://t.co/8hkKd2AQ8G |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @colourful_ot @SLawsonOT I am a super bad example. It takes a lot of passion and energy to do what I do, especially with multitude of things involved. #otalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ While you have your CPD hats on & thinking about learning objectives & appraisals, why not consider hosting an #OTalk chat of your own in 2019? |
| Louise @Louisepenny87 @SLawsonOT My PDR document is a live document, so constantly filing in bits, adding evidence etc. So that I don’t bore my reviewer too much, when it come to my Appraisal meeting, they only get an executive summary #Otalk |
 | Dimitris Voutsinos @Voutsi1377 @OTalk_ I had an OT mentor until recently. I ask more experienced OTs I know. I also think there's always something worth "stealing" from other specialities, like special educator, psychologist, speech therapist, & even plain staff members with many years of friction w subject #OTalk |
| OTalk @OTalk_ Right, this is @Kirstie_OT signing off! Bye for now! #OTalk https://t.co/NnJLIyAYpv |
