Reflective Learning and After Action Reviews
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 05 October 2017
Abstract
Formalised reflective learning systems are one of the most effective and yet underutilised methods of learning. This article, written by Hélène Russell, aims to give you the tools to use after action reviews (AAR) for your information management (IM) and knowledge management (KM) projects so you can learn from your experiences for greater success in the future and also to lead AAR meetings for other professionals within your organisation, to help increase their experiential learning.
