reflective comic
instead of an essay?
We created a...
The rubric data was disappointing...
These research
reflection essays aren't
very reflective...

Michele Van Hoeck & Margot Hanson
California State University Maritime

Creativity!
Something
was better ...
but was it

More
personality,
more humor,
more...

learning skills and performance.
Metacognition helps students
make sense of and incorporate
new knowledge.
Creativity!
