Reflection is an essential element of learning. Learning experiences are as much about
a students’ construction of what has happened, as they are about their engagement in
them. Thinking back on experience, and carefully re-evaluating it, is an essential part of
ongoing personal and professional development. Before you start a task, it can help to
reflect and set goals that you hope to achieve. This way, at the end, you can see how far
you have come and all that you have accomplished.
