Case studies
A Practical Example:
Imagine that you are helping to design and run PL programs for fellow and less experienced sustainability facilitators in your context area or sector - for example, you might be working with these facilitators and champions, across the range of organisations, whose objective is to implement a regional greenhouse strategy, or alternatively a regional / wider waste management network of sustainability facilitators, etc . The group has chosen to develop a professional learning program, to complement and improve the on-ground work they are doing in their community and organisational contexts. You may have decided to engage a 'generic' experienced facilitator of sustainability PL to assist you - although this will not always be necessary.
To remain true to the transformative process, you will not be 'delivering' this PL in the transmissive sense, but rather working with few other experienced facilitators drawn from the group (eg a reference group of experienced co-facilitators - this could be a couple of people, across the general facilitator and champion categories above, or a more substantial/formal reference/design group for larger PL programs) and you will develop together a PL approach which is reflective of the needs and interests of the wider range of participants in the PL program.
As design and implementation facilitators, you will be drawing on the expertise, knowledge and experience of those with whom you are working to design the PL program, and the program sessions themselves will be designed to draw on the expertise, knowledge and experience of the participants. The modules will provide advice and examples of what materials, activities and resources might be useful, for the reference design group to reflect on, adapt, modify or re-invent (or discard in favour of something more appropriate - hopefully in these cases the Module materials in will at least be a prompt for what is more appropriate).
