MIN541 Reflective Practitioner Perspectives in Ministry (16)
Corequisite: MIN540
Enrolment Restriction: Master of Ministry students
This subject provides a structure for candidates to work as reflective practitioners within the collaborative, pastorally oriented settings of Christian ministry. Outcomes of this subject are determined by the nature of the research projects being developed and are negotiated on an individual basis between students and supervisors. Projects are likely to be critical investigations of a particular approach to an identified pastoral issue in a nominated area of practice, undertaken to understand thoroughly its strengths and weaknesses. A detailed exploration of techniques relevant to the research topic is developed by candidates through reflection-in-action cycles in their own field of ministry.
