TEACHING INTENTIONS:
“…lifelong learning takes place through reflection [and] reflection, once learned, is a skill that crosses disciplines… As educators we need to facilitate critical reflection to enable students to move beyond a superficial understanding of their world” (Colley, Bilics, & Lerch, 2012, pp. 1-2).
