THREE QUESTIONS TO KEEP IN VIEW

  2. What kind of source is it?
  3. What does it leave unanswered?
Take the question to your study desk
01

Begin with the question

Name the question before collecting references. A complete method, a diagram, a practitioner account and an institutional syllabus can answer different kinds of questions. Explain the learning context and the part of the task that you are trying to understand. A useful reading exercise can reveal what is clear and what still needs a responsible person to explain.

02

Keep the boundary visible

Record the source and why it is relevant, then note its limits. More links do not automatically create a better learning resource; the selection should help someone understand what to read and what still needs qualified discussion. A private note can support a discussion, but it should not quietly become a claim that a formal outcome has been achieved.

03

Choose a record that has a purpose

Name what the record is intended to show before collecting it. A written account, a diagram or an authorised photograph can contribute different information. Keep the task and source beside the record so that a later reader can understand the limits of the account.

04

Return to a specific next step

Close the exercise with a question that can be revisited. Identify the source, teaching conversation or clarification it needs. Learning notes can help a discussion become more precise without grading competence or replacing an approved provider process.
