Reflective practice – and the need to write up reflection in writing – forms a key part of learning at university. In this workshop, we examine the nature of reflection and the different cycles commonly used to structure it, before taking a closer look at an example of reflective writing, created by applying one such cycle. We look at the topic from the point of view of tutors: what do tutors expect to see in a piece of reflection writing? But we also consider reflective writing from your – the student’s perspective – by highlighting misconceptions and mistakes often made by students.

"As part of the learning process, several university disciplines involve consideration of settings where trainee professionals address problematic situations. Thus, in their initial training and as part of their assessment, students are presented with activities that require them to reflect on and then write about their perceptions and conduct in relation to a problem or setting. This chapter analyses reflection as a thinking process and suggests ways in which you can put your thoughts into writing."
