AB  - I examine four different kinds of learning conversation: reflective practice, clinical supervision, work consultancy and performance appraisal. I propose that there is a close and reciprocal relationship between these kinds of conversation, and that they represent different aspects of a unified field, or continuum. I argue that appraisal should be seen as part of this learning continuum rather than as form of monitoring.
