Health and Health Care in Australia Assignment - Reflective Paper
The aim of this exercise is for you to reflect on three aspects of the group work activity:
- Reflect on your experience working within a team in terms of what worked well and what could be improved.
- Reflect on how this process enhanced your learning of health promotion principles and practice.
- Reflect on your professional development as an emerging nurse, or graduate in your chosen field.
- Academic writing style.
Using a model for reflection:
You will find it easier to write your reflection if you apply a model for reflection. This will help you to guide your thinking and reflection on the aspects of the required aspects of the health promotion project. Information about Driscoll's model has been provided for you here as a guide for the reflection.
Driscoll's Model of Reflection: Driscoll's Model of Reflection (Driscoll, 1994) will encourage you to think about what happened, the impact or meaning of what happened and to establish an action plan for dealing with similar situations in the future.
Describe objectively the tasks undertaken and processes followed for health promotion practice.
WHAT:
- Happened in your words?
- Did you see? Did you do?
