Lecture: Reflective Thinking

The aim of the seminar was to produce a reflective piece on something of our choice; mainly focusing on our current sketchbook or blog work.  For the introduction, we were given a situation and two different interpretations of the situation, each written in a reflective view about what could have been improved. The example was of someone late to an exam and their points about what went wrong and how this could be improved for the future.
Building on this, we looked at how although the order was chronological from what happened, it didn't necessarily mean that it was a good reflective paragraph.

I chose to look at my sketchbook and current research work and reflect on this:

What did you do:
"Research on my sketchbook blog, reflect on seminars to look back at what we've learned so far. I wanted to link this back to my sketchbook. With research,m the main process of my work is to always worry and not coherently present myself to people. To solve this and prevent it, planning on taking a break is beneficial to me, support from other peers and using planning methods (lists, note taking etc) is always advisable to me. I'm applying this to my current work by looking back and starting to visually plan out what I want to do, whilst also constantly referring to my peers for assessment and ways to improve my sketchbook."
