Personal Development Planning: What does it mean? An Interactive Working Paper

HE teachers use a variety of strategies to encourage students to reflect upon and evaluate their own learning experiences and plan for their own development. The term Personal Development Planning is being used to describe this process and Universities UK, SCoP, Universities Scotland, QAA and LTSN have produced guidelines to promote this as a core educational process. This interactive paper is designed to encourage you to contribute to the thinking on what PDP means and help create a database of PDP practice so that others may benefit from your experience.
