Task 2a: Reflective Practice

I have found over the years that hindsight is a wonderful thing, however very rarely do we document these thought and remember to continue to learn from them. I am very keen to put this into practice with my journal i shall be keeping to reflect on my professional life on a day to day basis.

This will enable to instantly look back on the day by having it right in front of me, to look at what worked and what can be improved on and why. Also any 'light bulb' moments i have, which can instantly make alot of things make sense!

When I trained at Stella Mann College, we had reflective logs, these were our light bulb moments, this could be a correction that had finally made sense or something we could change to bette ourselves in training, for my journal I am going to go along these lines, I will write about issues and triumphs I have had that day, I will write why I think they happened and what I can do to improve them.

Below is an example of a sheet I will use to fill in each evening, I will also keep a notebook on my for anything I need to jot down instantly.
