Experiential Learning Reflection (2nd Paragraph)
Discuss a common real life experience specific to the topic of the reading. You must have one experience from which you are able to show the connections to the learning content. You must explicitly show the connections between the elements
of the experience and the learning content and how these connections created new or enhanced understanding.
(5) What is an experience in which this topic play out (i.e., critical incident technique)?
• What was the context?
• Who were the actors and what were their formal or informal roles?
• What exactly happened – what did each of the actors do?
• Why do I think each of the actors acted in the way that they did?
• What were the consequences of the actions (attitudinal, behavioral, organizational)?
• What was the original learning or insight gained from the experience?
Were there follow up experiences that demonstrated what I learned from the original experience and was able to apply
(6) How did the learning content for the week show reading up in this experience?
• What were the specific elements of the learning content?
• How did each learning content element show up in the experience (connect the dots)?
(7) What new insights or understanding did systematically applying the learning content generate?
• What new insights did the learning content create when applied to the original experience?
• How did the application of the learning content change my perspective regarding what the experience was really about or how the experience should have been regarded or handled?
Critical Reflexivity (3rd paragraph)
Critical reflection recognizes and makes specific the biases that influence your perspective on the experience(s)
and how you interpret and attribute cause and consequence. Critical reflexivity requires that you step outside of yourself to assess why and how you are thinking in order to derive alternate possible explanations and understandings. Critical reflexivity should force you to see the situation from the other person’s perspective.
(8) What biases (i.e., based on prior experiences, life/career stage, lessons, motivations, cognitive, informational, or observational limitations, or norms due to gender, race, culture, etc.) did I bring to the reflection on the original experience, and how might I reconsider what happened, why it happened, and what should have been
concluded about it?
Confirmation Reflection (4th paragraph)
A confirmation reflection (a.k.a. evidence-based or active experimentation reflection) considers subsequent experience(s), observations, readings, or other evidence-based sources that confirmed, contradicted, or expanded your understanding of the original experience. Reflect on the effect of the confirmation and how it changed your understanding, behavior, or plans.
(9) What piece of external evidence, observation, or other experience can I apply to inform, validate, or challenge my newly evolving understanding?
Productive Reflection (5th paragraph)
A productive reflection refers to specific action steps you are currently implementing in your life in response to your new understandings, to definite plans you intend to implement in the future when you are in a supervisory,
managerial, or leadership role, or to career plans that you are formulating for your next career stage.
(10) What is my application of the newly developed understanding to my life? What am I changing in my current life and what is my action plan for the future?
