Reflection is metacognitive process that creates a greater understanding of ourselves and the situation we are in to inform future actions by this understanding. There is increasing literature on educational approaches for those in undergraduate or postgraduate studies and those continuing medical education to facilitate reflection.  This resource adds to the reflective journal exercise presented previously, by providing a description of reflection, its use and reflection frameworks as well as the way it impacts positively learning outcomes in various educational settings including medical education. Lastly, an example of a reflection exercise for medical education is also added. 

A reflection journal is designed for students to learn from experiences. This reflective journal focuses on basic concepts of academic development for graduate study and future professional development. Reflective learning requires a systematic review of learning experiences and intentional applications of concepts that are discussed in class. Written reflections require substantial context and connectivity of ideas and thoughts. Each journal entry is a minimum of 350 words and submitted bi-weekly. This reflection journal was designed to compliment course lessons and reiterate course learning objevtices. Created by Steven Harris-Scott, Ph.D., and Amy Lewis, Ed.D., for INTO George Mason University with support from Mason 4-VA.

Students apply the concepts learned in the class by preparing two (2) term projects discussing two natural hazards and how they impact the area where the student lives (or an area the student might like to live in).

William Butler Yeats occupies a dominant position in the lives and work of the Irish poets who followed him. We will explore some of that poetry, and consider how later poets, especially female poets, tried to come to grips with, or escape from, that dominance. As a seminar, the subject will place special emphasis on student involvement and control. I will ask you to submit one ten-twelve page essay, two shorter (five page) essays, and to accept the role of “leadoff person,” perhaps more than once, That role will demand that you choose from among the assigned readings for that session the poem we should focus upon, and to offer either a provocative articulation of what the poem is about, or a provocative question which the poem confronts, and which we should grapple with, as well.

Genre-Based Writing for Intermediate Spanish Students

Short Description:
"Introducción a la escritura: Genre-Based Writing for Intermediate Spanish Students" is a course for intermediate low/intermediate mid L2 Spanish students grounded in the tenets of the multiliteracies framework Learning by Design and Genre-Based Instruction.

Long Description:
Introducción a la escritura: Genre-Based Writing for Intermediate Spanish Students is a course for intermediate low/intermediate mid L2 Spanish students. All the materials in this book were created by Dr. Gabriela C. Zapata. The contents of this volume were developed under a Presidential Transformational Teaching Grant from Texas A&M University.

The main objective of this book is to help students develop their writing skills in Spanish. Students will work with authentic, open-source multimodal materials in order to: Reflect on their knowledge of a particular topic and be exposed to new perspectives on it; Conceptualize essential aspects of the content and formulate connections to concepts and theory; Analyze and understand linguistic and discursive aspects from a functional (how meaning is expressed) perspective, and critically examine what perspectives, interests, and motives are presented; and Apply their new knowledge creatively in related, academic written (e.g., producing a similar text on a different topic) and/or multimodal tasks (e.g., developing an infographics).

The instructional approach is grounded in the multiliteracies framework Learning by Design and Genre-Based Instruction.
