Entry 6:
Research/Connections
Topic: How is reflection beneficial to learning?
Reflective learning has readers step back and really try to understand exactly what they just read. Readers can connect what they just read to their own personal experiences. Reflection also helps build a readers critical thinking skills. It encourages learners to engage more in their readings and take charge of their own learning.
I have used concepts from other classes in order to help me understand topics in my everyday life. You can notice a lot of similar concepts throughout different classes if you reflect on your reading and actively try to comprehend your readings.
Connecting ideas between classes or personal experiences helps to put things into perspective. Trying to compare ideas between your life and something going on in class or a situation a friend is facing maybe could be explained by a reading you have done. Attention and reflection is a big part of life and does not always need to be based on readings. Reflecting and connecting during and after your reading benefits you in writing.
