Context
A key to self-directed learning is reflection. Reflection enables the ability to examine situations in order to better understand the surrounding context and identify potential improvements for the future. This assessment aims to develop your awareness and reflective learning ability while also assessing your understanding of the topics covered in modules 1 and 2.
Reflective writing ordinarily occurs in the first person (and you can do so here) and works best when you think deeply about a topic and look at both the positives as well as opportunities to improve in a situation. Examples within the context of this assessment might be:
• I found taking the Emotional Intelligence self-assessment challenging/interesting/useful/ a new experience because...
• Mayer and Salovey (1997) emphasise the importance of perceiving, accessing and generating emotions to develop emotional intelligence, which is not something I have thought about much previously...
• I agreed/disagreed with the first result because...
