The Driscoll model of reflection gives a framework for reflective writing, allowing ideas and situations to be analysed and interpreted for personal and professional growth and development (Bostock 2015), therefore I have applied this approach in reflecting upon my experience in the group presentation. What? The beginning of our group presentation started with a conversation where we all gave our opinions and ideas on what we could do the presentation on and how we would go about it. The idea of basing the presentation on smoking was a mutual agreement that we reached after a discussion that allowed for everyone’s ideas. The discussion resulted in a large amount of ideas and information that could possibly be incorporated within the presentation. …show more content…
The problem was that we had such a large quantity of information that was difficult to narrow down to extremely specific ideas and data which resulted in some confusion throughout the group as to what ideas we were going to incorporate or not. It is said that, ‘a team with a common purpose and clear identification of roles and responsibilities creates a cohesive working unit’ (Watson 2015). This was evident in our group presentation in a negative context, as we did not have this clear understanding as to what information to utilise that would assist in benefiting our presentation. The assistance that I gave to my colleague seemed to help them alleviate some stress they were experiencing as well as affect the final product …show more content…
Once compiled and sorted to narrow the data down to the most relevant and useful for the presentation, the overall effect was very useful. The range of information that everyone was able to gather helped with all sections of presentation which was hugely beneficial to the final product. The Universal Intellectual Standards for critical thinking states relevance and clarity as two of the key standards required for critical thinking (Estes et. al. p.4 2016). This skill of narrowing information to be specific on a certain aspect, as used in this presentation, will be beneficial to my practice as a nurse in terms of using relevant information about patients to ensure proper care, while being clear so that the information received and relayed is
This essay is going to reflect on my own management and leadership style in delivering patient care. It will discuss the effectiveness of the other leadership and management style within the multi-disciplinary team and its impact on delivering patient care. I will use as an example, my previous experience back home as a nurse and compare it to my current experience in the United Kingdom (UK). This will show my strength and weakness as well as my new learning skills, which have changed my practice. I will be using Driscoll model of reflection (2007) to guide my thought and refine my ideas.
Driscoll (2000) model) consists of three stages (What, So what & Now what) completing one cycle help me to improve my caring practice continuously and learning from those experience for better practice in the future. The cycle starts with a description of the situation (“What”), which include analysis of the incident. “So what” evaluate the experience, including the analysis to make sense of the experience, and the final stage “Now what” is a conclusion of what else could I have done better and an action plan to prepare for, if the similar situation arose again. Baird and winter (2005) gave some reasons why reflection is required in the reflective practice. They highlighted that a reflection could generate the practical knowledge, help to adapt
This paper is a case study reflection that needs to be applied and underpin the steps of safe prescribing, ethics, responsibility and legal of prescribing with respect to standards of Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC). In this regard, I will follow the Driscoll (1994) Model of reflection, which is based on three questions that explains experiences, differences that are made, significance, and actions to continue professional development with respect to learning. Discussion Driscoll (1994) Model of reflection
Gillian Bolton (2010 PG13) defines reflection “as learning and developing through examining what we think happened on any one occasion, and how we think others
In this booklet we want to challenge you to think about reflective practice and how you might use reflective practice in your workplace to improve the way you practice, your working relationships and ultimately achieve better outcomes for you and the young children you work with. We all reflect but in different ways and about different things. Often the reflection provides the “story of the day” that we may muse overby ourselves or tell a sympathetic ear, but ultimately the “story of the day” we want others
A 46-year-old woman walks out of her work on a smoke break. She has been smoking most of her life and reeks of cigarettes every day and has terrible lungs; her family was concerned for her. Afraid for the health of herself and children, she finally went to the doctor and was diagnosed with lung cancer. If she had switched from cigarettes to a harmless vaporizer like many others she wouldn 't be in such a predicament that could cost her to lose her life and abandon her family so soon. Vaping’s positive impact on society has reduced the number amount of health issues of former smokers across America and has become a more mainstream version of “smoking”; it has caused so much controversy with vaping in public places and influencing the younger generation to start smoking and vaping but has saved the lives of many.
A. OBJECTIVE AND THEORETICAL BACKGROUND In this individual reflective report, I will discuss how the Consulting Project course gave me opportunities to experience, explore and evaluate the real-life business case, how it strengthen my practical business knowledge, problem solving and leadership skills, and how the learning process will support my personal development goals. To help structure my reflective report, I will apply the Kolb’s model of reflection which we learned from the LPDCM course. This model is also known as learning through experience, described through the Kolb’s Learning Cycle: Figure 1. Kolb’s Learning Cycle (Source: Kolb, 2005)
This essay aims to examine different models of reflection, such as Gibbs, Kolb, and Atkins & Murphy, it will then compare them in respect of their application to practice. It will then explore the ‘Gibbs’ model of reflection as a vehicle with which to discuss interpersonal skills and communication within team practice, this will also include multi-disciplinary teams in general. During this essay the author will identify the key roles and responsibilities and the main barriers that affect partnership working, this will help identify the significance of communication and interpersonal skills while working with children and young people in different settings. There are multiple similarities and differences between the three models of reflection,
Introduction: Reflection is a part of daily process of learning and thinking. As stated by Jasper, (2003), the reflection is “…the way that we learn from an experience in order to understand and develop practice”. It is useful in dealing with challenges and can be used as a tool for personal and professional development. Moreover, a convoluted process of writing experiences and learning from any event and understanding of its usefulness in future is, defined as Reflective writing. The theoretical model which is often used as a framework for reflective writing was created by Professor Graham Gibbs (1988) and is known as Gibb’s reflective cycle.
1. INTRODUCTION T. S. Eliot (1943) once wrote, “We had the experience but missed the meaning”. We can have all the experiences in the world, but if we missed out on reflecting, how would we be able to find the meaning? In this reflection of an interview we were tasked to complete, I will be adopting Gibbs’ (1988) reflective cycle to help me in the describing, exploration of feelings, evaluating analysing, identifying implications, before concluding and writing the action plan. 2.
“…the way that we learn from an experience in order to Understand and develop practice” (Jasper 2003) Reflection is a way of going through thoughts and feelings about an incident, or a challenging day and gives us a chance
Throughout my power point presentation I found some strengths and some weaknesses I will improve on in the future. Making sure the audience understand the main topic of the presentation is important. When I started my presentation I first introduced the audience to the topic and gave some background information. To make sure that everyone understands what celiac disease is I gave information about the disease so that the audience can have basic knowledge about what gluten is. On the other hand I also found a few issues I can and will improve on in presentation to come.
Introduction In this reflective essay I will reflect upon the course based on the assignments and projects I have accomplished this semester. Recent research (Kornblith, 2012:3) identifies that reflection is an active process and making sense of the experience through the understanding of one’s actions. As suggested by (Roberts, 2011:63) she states that the understanding of reflection have been used to develop an action stage, which can further help to improve my skills and knowledge towards my course. This is vital as it ensures that i get the most out of my learning experience and i could use them to their maximum benefit.
Smoking has been a long time habit round the world. However, in the past, smoking cigarette was very popular and known to be a cool recreational drug, and was widely accepted by the community across the world. Today smoking has been less widely accepted and more restricted because of the many health risks that are linked to smoking cigarette. These days, people are well educated and more knowledgeable about the health risks of smoking.
General Purpose: to persuade Specific Purpose: to persuade the audience of the importance of banning smoking in public places Thesis: Smoking should be banned in public places because it is harmful to non-smokers who visit public places. I. Introduction A. Attention-getter: How many of you been around people who are smoking in public places? Probably, most of us have at least noticed people smoking in CMU campus even it is a non-smoking campus. Secondhand smoke is really harmful to anyone who inhales it in.
