ASSESSMENT TASKS

Assessment 1: Reflective Writing: Self Reflections

Weighting: 5+5=10%

Due Date: Weeks 3 and 12 (after the seminars as agreed with facilitator)


You will be required to make three entries into your on-line reflective journal throughout the semester. You will receive feedback on each of these entries. Each entry will be marked off as they fall due. All submissions must be lodged in the WebCT Turnitin link for your individual seminar. Do not use the common forum, email or hardcopy for the eJournals.

Process for Reflective Writing
Reflections are intended to assist you in articulating and strengthening your understanding of the learning activities covered in class. Write the first draft, and then review it. You are not to merely describe the activity or experience. You must carefully reference your work using the Harvard Referencing System. Each Reflective Journal entry must include a minimum of 4 References. If you do not include any references in your reflections, your work will be marked to a pass level only.

Below is a suggested format for each of the entries.

Entry Your entries are to be placed on-line in the Reflective eJournal Forum in the WebCT site – Hardcopy, email are not accepted
Format You should follow the DIEP framework for your entries:

D: describe the event, activity or experience

I: interpret the significance or impact of the events in the learning process

E: evaluate the value of what you have learned or experienced, what you “feel” about what you have learnt and

P: plan how you will apply this knowledge in the future (make links to your future career)

Reference: Turner, K, et al. (2008), p. 93,

Assessment of Critical Reflection Writing

Non Reflectors: A very descriptive report on what is/was happening and/or the content, rather than revisiting the material; impersonal account where ideas are substantiated only with reference to other writers and not with personal experiences; and tends to use simple logic, such as if this....then that.

Reflectors: Identify relationships between prior knowledge and feelings about new material; are able to modify the well known to suit new situations; arrive at insights, possibly some are original but do not demonstrate the validation of assumptions or of making knowledge their own.


Critical reflectors: Always return to experience in discussion; attempt to continually examine experience and self in a critical manner; pursue alternative views and possibilities; draw on a number of resources; are courageous in trying out new ideas – are amenable to change; and do not take things for granted but deliberately test proposition.
