Assignment

In order to gain two credit units, the students are asked to write a reflective learning diary. This means they have to reflect what they have learned in relation to the course and its content. The main point in writing a learning diary is to illustrate own line of thought instead of repeating what the lecturer has said. A learning diary should consequently reflect learning.

The following questions may be helpful:

1) What did I learn? What was new to me? Was there something that changed my views and why? Focus on and analyze the themes important to you.

2) What did I not understand? What went against my own ideas? Why? What was less comprehensible? Why? Focus on and analyze the questions that left you puzzled.

3) What the course has taught is likely to have some relevance for you and your research. Can you identify what this is? How are you able to apply this knowledge in your research? How does this support your development? Make note of and reflect on the thoughts that emerge as especially important.

Please return the learning diaries by the January 1^st 2019 to Samuli Pekkola, samuli.pekkola@tut.fi
