Assignment - Reflective Journal

Purpose:

Assignment 4 - the Individual Reflective Journal - is designed to ensure each student is able to document a critical reflection of their personal learning process, as experienced during this unit. Inpreparation for this final submission, it is suggested that you write down your thoughts each week, by making notes each week, so that by the end of the trimester those notes will serve as a reminder of which sections you were challenged by, what you learnt, and how you experienced the learning process.

A significant aspect of the learning journal will be your reflections at each phase of the Business Research Project, i.e. Topic Development, Literature Review, and Methodology BUT your emphasis should be on what you experienced, what challenged you personally, how you dealt with that and what you gained from it. It is NOT enough to objectively summarise what was done. This assignment must reflect and describe your own personal deep learning AND be convincing to the reader that you were integrally engaged throughout the learning process.

Assignment Structure

1. Based on my personal contribution to the topic selection, problem definition, research question, writing of topic development submission (including team charter, if applicable), how I experienced this, what challenges I faced, and what I learnt from that.

2. Based on my personal contribution to the literature review report, i.e. search process, summarising of relevant articles, designing the outline/argument/structure of the literature review, writing up the literature review, how I experienced this, what challenges I faced, and what I learnt from that.

3. Based on my personal contribution to the research methodology report, i.e. my role in discussions about methods, sampling, questionnaire design, data collection and analysis, how I experienced this, what challenges I faced, and what I learnt from that.

4. Based on my reflections of the total research process, the insights I gained and any issues, struggles, challenges, synergies I experienced, both individually and in the teamwork, how I experienced this, what challenges I faced, and what I learnt from that.
