Debriefing with Good Judgement

Debriefing with Good Judgment (DGJ) is
A structured facilitated model of debriefing conducted in a conversational style
• designed to provide psychological safety for the learner, and
• elicit underlying frames and mental models that influence behavior(actions)

“It is not enough just to do, and neither is it enough just to think.
Nor is it enough simply to do and think.
Learning from experience must involve links between the doing and the thinking”
(Gibbs, 1988, p. 14)

CORE COMPONENTS OF DEBRIEFING WITH GOOD JUDGEMENT (DGJ)
• Centrality of Psychological Safety for Learning• Importance of Frames as Drivers of Action• Reflection as Critical to Changing Frames• Use of Advocacy Inquiry to Support Reflection• Debriefer and Participant Both Contribute to
Understanding what Happened

We believe that everyone participating in the
simulation is intelligent, capable, cares about doing
their best, and wants toimprove.

Before We Begin . ..
• Choose an opponent for thumb wrestling
• The goal is for you to win this competition.
• To win, you will need to pin your opponent’s thumb more times than they pin yours during 45 seconds
Adapted from Sweeney & Meadows The Systems Thinking Playbook, 2001.
What Happened?
14
• How many points did you get?
• What were the assumptions you brought into this game?
• How did your assumptions affect your behavior?
Mental Models (Frames)
15
• The images, assumptions, and stories we carry in our minds of ourselves, other people, institutions, and every aspect of the world
• They determine what we see, and most importantly, how we act

Reflective Practice A Conceptual Model where participants’ “frames”—comprised of such things as knowledge, assumptions, and feelings—drive their actions. Their actions, in turn, produce practice results.
16
Closing the Performance Gap
• Debriefing is time to identify performancegaps and close them through discussionand reflection
• Debriefing gives learner the tools tochange and improve their performance
• Learner may demonstrate exceptionalframes – this too should be noted in debrief
17
Skills for Working with FramesReflection – understanding your own mental models and the implications
Inquiry – learning the questions you can ask to help you test others’ mental model
Advocacy – making your thinking and reasoning more visible to others

The Heart of Debriefing: Reflection ….
allows learners to uncover the thoughts, feelings and behaviors that drive behavior
Enables us to:
• Learn
• Be conscious of our potential for bias
• Use reflection as tool for lifelong learning
• Maximize own learning opportunities
• Can observe gap between desired and actual actions
• Acknowledges and empowers learners

Questioning Tool: Advocacy-Inquiry• I Saw: Your concrete observations
Specific facts, ‘bottom rung of ladder’, objective• — “I saw…” or “I heard…” or “I noticed….”• I Think: Your perspective and why it matters
Your point of view in the context of effect on caregiver— “I think…” or “I wonder …” or “I am pleased…”
• I Wonder: Open-ended inquiry into learner perspective
Short, open-ended questions/statements about learner thoughts• — “How do you see it…? or “What were you
thinking….?”

Before We Try It Out

Time to Try it Out!
Simulation: Learning Objectives
Explain your role to Mrs. Jimenez.
Build rapport with Mrs. Jimenez.
CPSGather information about the allegation
Review the Protective Action Plan
CFWSExplore her understanding of the concerns and the requirements, and clearly articulate yours.
Initiate a discussion about concurrent planning.
Simulation: Layout and Logistics
Each group will have a coach assigned
Coach will take you to one of 3 “stations” to interview Mrs. Jimenez
Interviews will be done round robin style• Your group will decide what order you’ll interview in,
and how you’ll sit in the room
When your interview time is almost over, the coach will tell you (“last question” or “30 seconds”)
7/30/2018
11
Simulation: Layout and Logistics
Before we enter we’ll review our learning objectives
Half the group will do the interview and the other will observe and take notes (depending on group size)
After the interview, the Coach will facilitate a debrief within that room
We’ll take a break between interviews, and switch stations for the next interview
Simulation: Our Basic Assumption
We believe that you are intelligent, capable, care about doing your best and want to improve.
Simulation: Your Role
• Act as if this was a real parent • Use the structure and approaches we reviewed, as well as your other skills
• Apply the basic assumption to yourself, your peers, and your coach
• Be willing to reflect on what happened within the interview
• Keep confidentiality

Simulation: Our Role
Apply the basic assumption to each of you and ourselvesProvide hints or nudges when needed within the simulationPause the simulation if a re‐do is neededKeep the group on timeUse the debrief to identify the moments that are richest for learningand to reflect together on how those moments went
