More pennies - drop ... A personal note
*
Quite a while back on twitter, someone took exception as I replied to a tweet. The specifics aren't important, what is, is how much I take for granted here.
The suggestion was that h2cm is, gives credence to, accentuates ... the 'general' at the expense of the specific, specialist, advanced. This [Hodges' model] is BAD.
As regards Hodges' model this is plain false, wrong.
Are specialists, advanced practitioners 'born' fully formed?
As I have always tried to remember my days as a Nursing Assistant, we must remember students and across disciplines.
Some comments, by new students on placement also on twitter suggest this is sadly, not the case.
I think I replied again in the thread, highlighting h2cm's open, situated, context driven potential.
In reality people on twitter are patient; I'm muted; the cliques, click away; whatever. As I churn out the same images and phrases.
What I need to do [yes, I know!], and will from now on, is qualify 'generic conceptual framework' (which on a Saturday night [UK] is probably a turn-off for many 😘).
As your knowledge grows, and is pruned by new learning, experience (and time) so your conceptual knowledge and vocabulary changes - expertise.
Hodges' model can reflect this.
So, if you are a specialist - and new here - WELCOME!
Here are four pools, choose yours and by all means: DIVE IN.
Don't worry. IT IS SAFE.
At least, you won't hit the bottom, and you may not even find the sides. 😉
If your field is theology, the spiritual - well, well, you are in for a real treat.
