I especially appreciate following chapters:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Advances in theorising RPL by Judy Harris<\/li>\n<li>Exploring the learner experience of RPL by Helen Pokorny and Ruth Whittaker<\/li>\n<li>Technology and RPL by Roslyn Cameron, Nan L. Travers, Christine Wihak<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For further investigating VNIL it seems essential to me to better understand learning theories on which VNIL is based on. Following theoretical trends in RPL are identified by Judy Harris:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>adult and esperiential learning theory (eg. Kolb&#8217;s experiential learning cycle, which has a somewhat individualistic and rationals notion of learning and reflection)<\/li>\n<li>Other forms of constructivism (including Vygotsky&#8217;s social development theory and situated learning)<\/li>\n<li>critical theory<\/li>\n<li>postmodernism: &#8220;Experience is not transparent, but shaped by &#8216;discourse and scoiality&#8217;; knowlege is not abstract and universal but situated, embodied and realtional.&#8221; &#8211; there are different knowledge cultures except for the academic knowledge culture and RPL should be place where they can meet &#8211; Elana Michelson&#8217;s work is addressing these aspects (Harris 2014, p. 50) Also Fejes (2008) agues that &#8220;relfection is not a neutral or apolitical practice&#8221; (ibid.)<\/li>\n<li>recognition theory<\/li>\n<li>socio-materialism<\/li>\n<li>social realism<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I can really recommend following book if you want to know more about the recogniton of prior learning or as it is also called the validation of non-formal and informal learning.
