CAFE: 'Critical Reflection for Learning and Assessment' with Patti Clayton, April 4

Wednesday, April 4, 4-5:30 p.m.
Administration Building, Room 204

Critical reflection is the part of experiential learning that generates, deepens and documents learning. When used in this capacity, it needs to be understood not as "touchy-feely," non-grade-able, private, stream-of-consciousness, but rather as a reasoning process that is analytical, integrative, assessable, subject to public critique and structured/guided. Critical reflection can generate learning outcomes that include knowledge, skills, attitudes/values and behaviors. If it is to generate assessable learning, critical reflection should be guided in accordance with the desired learning outcomes.
