EVERY lesson has a reflection in the last 5 minutes. WHAT - SO WHAT - NOW WHAT?
Reflective writing is academic self analysis of your work. IT IS NOT A CONFESSIONAL.
NSW K-12 Glossary defines 'reflection' as:
The thought process by which students develop an understanding and appreciation of their own learning. This process draws on both cognitive (brain) and affective (emotional) experience.
