Partıcıpant Reflectıon Prompts for Phases 1,2 & 3

Think about the stage. As you think you may be able to organise your reflections into different categories:

What did we do?

How did we do it? Why did we do it this way?

What knowledge have I learned or developed?

What skills and attitudes have I learned or developed?

How can I apply my development during this phase to other learning situations?

How can I apply my development during this phase to other life situations?

 

Here are some questions to help prompt your reflection. Answer the questions that you think are relevant to your experience. You are welcome to add other reflections – using the categories suggested above.

What part(s) of this phase most surprised you?

Which part(s) of the phase was the most fulfilling? What part was the least fulfilling? What does this suggest about the way you work and learn?

Consider your experiences during the phase. How did you feel about the experiences during the phase? How do you feel now? Describe any similarities or differences.

What skills, knowledge and attitudes do you think you developed through this phase?

What does your performance in this phase suggest to you about your strengths?

What does your performance in this stage suggest to you about your opportunities for development?

What did you learn from the phase about how you react? (Working in a team, meeting deadlines, team responsibility, team creativity…)

Were any of the experiences of this phase familiar to you?

Now that you have reflected on the phase what might you do differently in the future?

What would you like to be able to do better? How could you improve in the future?

How has studying / thinking about the topic material had an impact on your thinking?
