Learning Histories Guide
- Learning History is a type of action research inspired by oral history
- It aims to capture experiential knowledge to make learning actionable by staying close to the stories of those involved
- This unit uses an adapted version of this research process suitable for first-year undergraduate students to familiarize with the learning-as-you-do process
- The process requires the development of reflection skills on experiences and translating the reflection to actions
- Reflection skills are key for action research and learning as well as Learning Histories
Assessment
- Assessment in HLTH11027 are based upon learning history
- The overall spiral of learning and action framework includes the following steps:
- Starting with students' experiences
- Looking for patterns
- Applying new information and theory
- Developing skills and planning for action
- Applying skills in action
Gaining Understanding
- Building on current and previous experiences during the term promotes reflection, critical thinking, and learning to develop skills in academic writing and understanding the foundations of health
- Learning History uses oral history as the basis to gather information by interviewing participants about their life experiences
- The first step includes writing about personal or others experiences to form assessment 1
- Select two other individual's reflections and use a word template to analyse everyone's reflections looking for patterns and commonalities across experiences to form assessment 1
- Continue learning by exploring social determinants of health for an online quiz that allows the development and expression of a theoretical understanding of the determinants of health
Protective Factors
- Understanding of determinants of health are deepened by applying this to protective factors which forms the focus of Assessment 3
- Develop an understanding of the foundations of health by starting with the personal experience to gradually widening the circle to a more theoretical perspective
- Learning about Social Innovation and its relation to the social determinants of health and action on social problems takes place
- The iChange module and quiz are completed for Quiz 2 assessment
Reflective Response

- The following questions should be reflected on:
- How has the level of personal or a family's income influenced life outcomes and health?
- How did early childhood experiences influence life outcomes and health?
- How has education level influenced life outcomes and health?
- How has gender influenced life outcomes and health?
