What knowledge, skills, and abilities were necessary to engage in and complete the learning experience?

Reflection is an important element of the learning process.
The act of reflecting requires the individual to critically think, from a variety of different perspectives.
1. Think back (Barnstable, 2009).
What was the original purpose of the learning experience?
What was the motive for completing the learning experience?
What critical factors both helped or hindered the learning experience?
What knowledge, skills, and abilities were necessary to engage in and complete the learning experience?
What did I actually learn?
When did the learning occur?
2. Think forward (Barnstable, 2009).
If I had chosen to do “x” or not do “x” would it have changed the outcome?
How significant are the outcomes of the learning experience?
If I had the chance to repeat the experience, what would I do differently?
How might this learning experience impact my future?
3. Think inward (Barnstable, 2009).
Why was this learning experience meaningful to you?
How does it support your personable beliefs?
Do I agree or disagree with the way in which I learned this? Why or why not?
What differences has the learning made in my intellectual, personal, or ethical development?
What were the highest and lowest moments of the learning experience?
4. Think outward (Barnstable, 2009).
How am I looking at this learning experience? How would others see this experience?
Would someone from a different culture view the experience differently? If so, how? If not, why?
Does the learning experience have an ethical, scientific, political, or economic impact? Why and how?
For this discussion, you will need to reflect on your learning experience in ENG 250. In your reflection, be sure to address each of the four elements of reflection:
thinking back
thinking forward
thinking inward
thinking outward.
Prompts have been provided to springboard your thinking. Be sure to address at least two prompts noted for each element of reflection process in your initial post.
