WHAT SHOULD GO IN THE REFLECTION?
Your reflection should have the following included into it:
·         A short summary of your portfolio piece – (what was expected of you?)
·         Process you followed in preparing your portfolio piece – (how did I do it?)
·         Difficulties experienced and why – (what problems did I face?)
·         How did I overcome those difficulties – (what strategies did I use to solve my problems?)
·         How I benefited from completing the piece – (Did I benefit? How?)
·         How I can use my acquired knowledge to better my teaching learning strategies in the future – (How could I use my knowledge in the future?)
The reflection should be brief and to the point. It should be constructive and should not criticize unless constructive criticism is in use.  It should be written using scholarly writing and should reflect the professional ethic of your profession.
