Details for the reflective essay:

You must reflect on what and how you have learned from the module as follows:

Part 1:

• What TECHNICAL learning have you gained with regard to design, delivery and evaluation of learning in practice from your group presentation?
• Note by technical learning we are referring to the theory and practice of design delivery and evaluation of learning events.
• What technical knowledge and skills have you acquired?
• Choose the 3 or 4 points only, that are most valuable to you, to allow sufficient depth of analysis
• How do these points link to theory?
• Feed forward/transfer of learning (how have you or will you use this learning in the future)?

Part 2:

• What have you learnt about LEARNING theory in practice? From any part of this module.
• How do you and others learn?
• What supports or hinders learning?
• Select 3 or 4 points only, that are most valuable to you, to allow sufficient depth of analysis
• How does this link to relevant theory?
• Feed forward/transfer of learning (how have you or will you use this learning in the future)?
• Here you should consider the learning theories that we have covered as part of the module and which ones you feel have been the most significant to you and why
