BECOMING IN COMPLEXITY

BECOMING IN COMPLEXITY
A COURSE TOWARDS COMPLEXITY-ORIENTED LEARNING IN HEALTH
Becoming in complexity
The course prepares future health professionals to ‘become’. This starts by understanding the complexity of health and the dynamics of the 21st century health workspace, as well as critical thinking, lifelong learning, or intercultural maturity. It empowers learners to have the critical ability to judge their own work and that of others by developing a systematic evaluative judgement for themselves and the health ecosystem (Yin 2018).

BECOMING IN COMPLEXITY

Why is it needed?

Health students are in a formal, individual learning process (education). Participating in complex issues challenges them to align their individual with collective learning.

From an early phase in their professional development the work situation needs to be put central to create a shift from knowing to becoming.

‘Becoming’ integrates knowing, acting, and being (Scalon 2011). However, it is not sufficient to rely on predefined steps to follow, but a real time developmental evaluation needs to be in place.

How to use the course?

The course is EQF referenced with 1 to 2 ECTS.

The target groups are health educators and health curriculum developers who update or develop health curricula.

The (content of the) course can be transferred into formal and non-formal health education, inside and outside higher education structures.
