Reflective Writing
A great deal of your time at university will be spent thinking; thinking about what people have said, what you have read, what you yourself are thinking, and how your thinking has changed. A reflection is a form of personal response to experiences, situations, events, or new information. Reflective writing generally contains elements of description, analysis, and outcomes or action. If you include each of these components in your reflective writing, you will more clearly see connections between your experiences, learning, and theories.
