What is it about?
This paper examines the notion of 'experience' as it is usually understood in reflective practice. The author proposes a different understanding of experience in which it is not a 'personal' belonging but rather shared. This aim is to allow students to develop less individualised versions of their reflections.

Why is it important?
It is important as it re-defines 'experience' in reflective practice.
Perspectives
This paper attempts to explore how reflective accounts can become shared objects - not ones that belong only to the writer. Nietzsche's story of the jester in Thus Spake Zarathustra is used to define illustrate this attempt.
