ABSTRACT
This chapter recounts how I have discovered a deeper understanding of my educational values and beliefs through trying to live them in my work with colleagues, students and parents, as well as fellow researchers on the MA in Education course. Uncovering and clarifying these values through a process of reflection and dialogue have helped to make explicit the tacit knowledge which underpinned my practice. The research has also enabled me to rethink the relationship between curriculum, learning and teaching, and to reshape student learning tasks so that student achievement may be assessed in a way that is congruent with their learning experience.
