Reflective learning



In last weeks lesson we looked at reflective learning and what it involves. The diagram above shows many of the things disscussed in our class about the topic. We were also given the task to relate two articles to our bubbl.us brainstorm diagram. "Blog as a reflective tool" explains the effectivness of blogging and the advantages it has to developing our learning, particulary for reflective practice. The philosopher
Kolb (1984) suggested that experience alone does not provide a sufficient learning experience in many situations.
 The second article explains the art of reflection and the importance of reflecting on what you are doing as part of the learning process. As mentioned in our bubbl.us diagram this artcle gives a clear outline as to what is involved in becoming a relfective learner and the importance of reflection in todays society.

Pilkipedia

Last week we were given the task of researching a website and analysing it as a group! we initially chose to to base our presentation on welsh football. However, after much consideration we decided to evaluate the website pilkipedia.
 
We chose this topic because we are big fans of Karl pilkington and the television serious 'An idiot abroad'.
We researched a number of websites linked to this topic and found that pilkipedia was the most relevant! We thought that it was a good website and reliable for information about all the work of rickey gervais, steve merchant and Karl pilkington! Aswell as facts it contained alot humerous Quotes and photos the series and other works.

I thought our presentation went well and thought that we were good embassadors of pilkipedia!
