currycraver Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Hi Everyone, I have started my Foundation degree. As part of our first assignment I have to write some reflective pieces. I know that I do this informally in my work but am not sure if my writing and thoughts are what is needed. I have been reading a variety of useful information in books and journals. I wondered if anyone could advise me on what has worked for them or share some writing just so that I can try and move forward. I have written some notes but cannot move on from there and now I am panicking. Hoping someone more skilled can help. Thank you
Guest Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 hello Could you reflect on something that happened in your workplace and then relate it to Gibbs reflective cycle? What is your assignment question? Its 4 years since I did FD so although I can remember doing reflective practice module I cant remember question.Unsworth
hali Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 the easiest is to reflect upon something that has happened within your week
Guest mukerjee1 Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Agree with Hali - just completed FD and found the best reflections to be those most relevant and recent to your current practice. Wishing you all good luck with your future studies.
HappyMaz Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 My reflective journal entries are too personal to share on here, but you might find this helpful - it is Rolfe's model which I found really easy to use. The form has a list of prompts in each column showing you the kinds of things you might like to include. Hope it helps! Maz Rolfe__s_model.docx Rolfe__s_model.doc
redjayne Posted October 9, 2010 Posted October 9, 2010 Thats a really useful format - have downloaded and will share with my staff as one or two are struggling with reflecting. Thanks Maz
currycraver Posted October 9, 2010 Author Posted October 9, 2010 Thank you Maz I have downloaded it and will try and use it next week to reflect and let you know how I got on. Thanks everyone for the support.

Guest Posted October 10, 2010 Posted October 10, 2010 We have been using the Gibbs model, the first one I handed in I was told was way to brief, aparantly they want a full history on leading up to the situation and alot of detail about feelings etc so I have now done my 2nd ready to hand in Tuesday so perhaps we could exchange detail levels when its marked lol, I did it on a row with my boss so didn't want to go to far into how angry i was lol. We have to do one a week and then pick the best 12 for submission at the end, Thanks maz btw I think i'm going to use that as a template for my next one.
