Context:
A key to self-directed learning is reflection. Reflection is the examination of situations in order to better understand the surrounding context and identify potential improvements for the future. This assessment aims to develop your awareness and reflective learning ability while also assessing your understanding of the topics covered in modules 1 and 2.
Reflective writing ordinarily occurs in the first person (and you can do so here) and works best when you think deeply about a topic and look at both the positives as well as opportunities to improve in a situation. Examples within the context of this assessment might be:
Explain the key concept(s) you are exploring in this assessment.
eg Define the meaning of emotional intelligence and why it is important to your personal and professional life. Include referencing to research/theory in modules, via in-text citations.
