REFLECTION

"We do not learn from experience,
we learn from REFLECTING on experience"
    -John Dewey-


Below is a framework to guide you in writing a good reflection:


Step 1: Summarize the tasks/experiment/practical/experience

  • What happened in general?
  • What was being examined in that tasks/experiment/practical?

Step 2: Interpret

    • Why was the tasks/experiment/practical important?
    • What made the tasks/experience interesting?
    • How was the tasks/experiment useful for the project in CP5070?

      Step 3: Reflect forward

      • Record what you used to think about the topic/concept, using the prompts "I used to think ...." Now think about how your ideas about the topic have changed as a result of the experience/experiment/practical. Write a few lines to capture where are you now in your thinking, starting with the prompt "Now I think..." Next is to think about your next step in your learning journey in CP5070 by using the prompt "So next I will ........"

I used to think that ............... Now I think that .......... So next I will .........

      • How can I apply this new skills/learning in CP5070 for other modules or my personal project/interest?
