REFLECTIVE PORTFOLIO??? IMPORTANT?? YES
1)Go to College
2)Attend Lectures
3)Work on Assignments
4 ) Submit Assignments
These are the 4 basic activities of a undergraduate student does when attending College or uni, however is it enough? Well According to research done, it is not.
A graduate student should constantly keep a record on his or her daily activities while in college
eg: What he/she have learned during the course of the year/semester/day, various goal attained during University life, What kind of goals are still to be attained etc.
According to Alan P. Knoerr and Michael A. McDonald "Reflective portfolios help students assess their own growth. Project portfolios identify their
interests and tackle more ambitious assignments."
It is not just a one sheet of paper report, but it is an extensive analysis of the data or activities logged for the whole entire module/semester/year. At the end of which the student can compare his or herself at the start of the module and at the end of it, how he or she have improved and what qualities have they gained.
