For your reflective learning journal: Describe some key points you learned that confirmed what you already knew. Identify some of the significant new learning points

Guiding Questions For your reflective learning journal: Describe some key points you learned that confirmed what you already knew. Identify some of the significant new learning points. In what ways will this learning effect how you approach understanding conflicts? Support your points with scholarly references from the readings. Reflection is an important part of the learning process. When we capture our initial reactions to our learning we are able to deepen that learning. It is also an opportunity to begin to identify ways in which this new learning fits with previous learning and how it may begin to change our perspectives, content knowledge and level of self-awareness. Your reflection journals are 15% of your overall course grade.
