8. Reflection is a form of mental processing – like a form of thinking – that
we use to fulfill a purpose or to achieve some anticipated outcome. It is
applied to relatively complicated or unstructured ideas for which there
is not an obvious solution and is largely based on the further processing
of knowledge and understanding and possibly emotions that we already
possess (J Moon 1999)
Kolbs Learning cycle

9. Approach to Reflective practice
• Situation. Reflect on the actual experiences
• Affective Domain. Reflect on the feelings
and emotions experienced?
• Interpretations of events. What did I learn?
• Decision. What will I do as a result?
(C Hogan 1995)
