In this informal reflective journal entry, you have an opportunity to consider your hopes for your learning in this course and engage in initial brainstorming for your assignments. Reflection is the necessary bridge in the learning process that takes place when you are involved in a learning experience.
To prepare, you should use this reflection activity to brainstorm your ideas for next week’s assignment, make connections to previous work completed in the course, and analyze how you might apply what you learn to your personal and/or professional life. As a reminder, in your assignment for next week, you will create a presentation proposal regarding an ongoing problem and solution(s) relevant to the location you chose in your Week 5 Assignment. Please address the following as you craft your response:
- Based on your research on your location, what is an important ongoing problem you’d like to address in your presentation proposal?
- What connections to what you’ve already learned in the course do you plan to explore as you complete your Week 10 Assignment next week?
- How could you apply what you’ve learned so far in this course to your personal and/or professional life?
