Education Podcast’s
I have been listening to a few podcasts recently. The most interesting one I came across is Booruch. The most recent podcast has a very interesting interview withe fellow East Lothian porbationer Dave Cain. The discussion was very interesting. Dave talked about probationers who start blogs and don’t keep them up to date (guilty there I’m afraid). In this time of interview and stress for all probationers, as Dave discussed, a reflective blog could be an excellent resource for helping to complete your application forms. No flicking through folders or dredging the depths of your memory to remember the exciting and varied activities you’ve developed over the year. Just look up your blog….if its well maintained! I can only speak from personal experience but I have felt that my blog has slipped down my to-do list as the year has progressed. I still read and learn from many many blogs. I was asked at a recent interview “what my main development aim would be for next session”. Blogging, both reflective and class based will be up there.

Hi Neil
Glad you liked the podcast - it`s amazing what editing can do to turn someone’s ramblings into a semi-coherent discourse ! Thanks for the comment on my blog - at least there appears to be a few jobs appearing in East Lothian now. Just have to get past the 300+ applicants that will no doubt be applying for each one.
