Reflection is an important tool to turn an experience into a moment when learning is captured for the future. In this episode Nigel and Fran explore why it is important to reflect and how to do this practically. They discuss the importance of ‘journaling’ (or even ‘double journaling’) and how your peers and networks can help you with reflection.
