Reflection: Start Stop Continue

Reflection: The Heart of Learning
Reflection is perhaps the most important thing in becoming self-directed,
Reflection Excuses
Without reflection, learners might learn content, but they are not growing as learners. Yet, we do not give the space and time for students to reflect. I have been guilty of it myself, sacrificing reflection time for more content, because, well, I think it is so important for them to know it. And, I am wrong for doing so. So, why don’t we do it?
Some reasons we tell ourselves that causes us to skip reflection:
- It takes too long
- Students are not engaged or do not care
- Don’t know how
- Too much content to cover
- We might not really believe reflection matters
Reflection Made Easy
- What do I/we Start doing?
- What so I/we Stop doing?
- What do I/we Continue doing?

Hi John,
Thanks for your blog!
This is true and I'm fully agree with "The heart of learning" with the "start – stop – continue" cycle!
That is about het big "WHY" of how & what.
It make children, students, human being (and animals) empowererd!!!!!
They become aware about their inner personality.
This is great! It make them conscious about the importance and the why of continious learning.
Thanks John,
