The Value of Reflection
The Ontario curriculum has long held the belief that reflection is important to student growth; in fact, many assessments include a section where students are prompted to reflect on what they did and what they will do differently the next time. These are not time-filler sections, but rather meant to engage a student’s metacognition and bring them more actively into their own learning journey.
However, for some students reflection and planned action on that reflection does not come easily. It may be difficult for them to find the reason they did not get a good mark on a test even though they studied for it, yet without finding that reason they run the risk of making the same mistake on the next one, or worse, thinking they just ‘aren’t smart enough’. For international students, it might also be that they have never been exposed to this type of reflective activity before as perhaps they come from school systems that follow a more rote style of learning, or they had very prescribed and supervised study schedules.
