Critical Reflection
In a critical reflection, we examine our biases, compare theories with current actions, search for causes and triggers, and identify problems at their core. A critical reflection is not a reading assignment, a summary of an activity, or an emotional outlet. When we reflect critically, we have two goals:
- to critique our existing beliefs and assumptions
- to transform our beliefs, feelings, and actions
In academic courses, a critical reflection is often part of a formal essay assignment.
