Requirements
In this report you are required to describe and reflect on five events/activities that you have observed or have been involved in during your placement.
Focus your reflection on:
- The type, extent and/or depth of knowledge and skills associated with professional practice. This should include consideration of discipline specific skills as well as graduate capabilities.
- Attitudes of importance in conducting yourself as a professional, for example, diligence, perseverance, empathy, honesty and so on. Your Profession Code of Conduct is a source we encourage you to access for possible examples and also reflect on the assessments activities undertaken in the lecture.
- You are required to describe each of the five events using the STAR-L approach. Whilst it is important that you provide adequate details of the situation, task/event, action and result, be sure to focus on the "Learnt" aspects of the experience. This is the section that requires most detail.
- For each event, use academic and industry resourcesand reference to your previous experiences and university studies to explain and extend your understanding of how/why the organisational procedures, attitudes, behaviours, and skills that you and your colleagues exhibited during the event influenced the outcome. What could have been done differently?
- The events/activities should be different from those presented in Report.
