Works best with a peer you trust. zhenya_polosatova https://padlet.com/zhenya_polosatova/qe9kr7yb7qrdnd13/wish/651672865 2020-07-10 09:45:07 UTC https://padlet.com/zhenya_polosatova/qe9kr7yb7qrdnd13/wish/651672865 Setting a goal for a session/event to attend can be helpful to focus the later reflection. Were the goals achieved? Why (not)? etc. zhenya_polosatova https://padlet.com/zhenya_polosatova/qe9kr7yb7qrdnd13/wish/651673717 2020-07-10 09:47:15 UTC https://padlet.com/zhenya_polosatova/qe9kr7yb7qrdnd13/wish/651673717 Reflective Practice Metaphor zhenya_polosatova https://padlet.com/zhenya_polosatova/qe9kr7yb7qrdnd13/wish/651687800 What would your metaphor about reflective thinking be? Mine is water. ]]> 2020-07-10 10:29:04 UTC https://padlet.com/zhenya_polosatova/qe9kr7yb7qrdnd13/wish/651687800 A Pie Chart - a simple reflective activity for students and teachers. irenevsushko https://padlet.com/zhenya_polosatova/qe9kr7yb7qrdnd13/wish/651698835 Students draw a pie chart which they divide into 3 parts. (Or they can use a template provided by the teacher/trainer). 
Part 1 - Favorites - my favorite part of the lesson/training or some language that I liked. 
Part 2 - Challenges - something that was difficult.
Part 3 - Questions - some questions students or trainees might have after the lesson/session. 
Perhaps, you could include one more Part 4 - future steps - what are the next steps I am going to take as a student or a trainee. 
The activity doesn't take much time and effort and yet, those students who have tried seemed to be more consciously aware of their learning goals and progress.

In the 18th and 19th centuries, people would design allegorical maps to portray marriage and love. My idea is to reflect on our practice by developing an allegorical map that shows the world of teaching/training that we inhabit. What does your map your look like :-)?
