Learning theorist Graham Gibbs emphasised that "It is not sufficient simply to have an experience in order to learn. Without reflecting upon this experience, it may be quickly forgotten, or its learning potential lost..." If we take the time to step back and genuinely consider not just what happened but also so what and why - and how we felt as a consequence - then we can begin to generalise from our experience and develop new understanding which can be applied in future. In short, learning can then take place.

1. Individual Development Plan (IDP)
Due: 6/16
The purpose of this exercise is to:
Help you develop and improve goal-setting skills, a critical element for all facets of one’s personal and professional life;
Provide the opportunity for you to take personal responsibility for your development by helping you reflect on where you are and where you want to go for this term and beyond;
Serve as a guide for conversations between you and your mentors (internship supervisor and program advisor) to ensure that you are getting the help you need in achieving your goals.
Discuss your Individual Development Plan with your internship mentor so that he/she can provide appropriate assistance and guidance to you throughout the semester.
The plan has three parts that are described below. Each is a critical element of the goal-setting process.
Part 1: Analysis of Your Strengths and Areas for Improvement
In this section, you should answer a series of reflective questions as a way to assist you with identifying the strengths you should leverage, as well as areas of improvement. The format for responses to these questions can be in a narrative format or presented as a series of direct responses. Please review the questions in the Individual Development Plan Supplement at the end of this document for further guidance on this section.
Part 2: Summary of Goals and Action Steps
After you complete Part 1, you will create the goals section of your plan. The goals should be related to specific goals you want to accomplish this semester and should take into consideration your responses from Part 1. There are five areas we want you to consider. They include: Leadership, Professional Development, Civic Engagement, Academic Development, and Personal Growth. You should identify one to two (1-2) goals in each area, and then create two to three (2-3) specific action steps you will take to achieve each of the goals. You should have a total of eight to ten (8-10) goals. More guidance on each of the five areas is provided in the Individual Development Plan Supplement at the end of this document.
Part 3: Putting it all Together
After you have written your goals section, you will write a brief (100-200 word) summary explaining how the action steps you plan to take to achieve your short-term goals will enable you to ultimately accomplish your long-term plans as identified in Part 1. While writing your summary, be sure to indicate what resources you may need beyond this semester to accomplish your long-term plans.
II. Informational Interview
After the interview, write a reflection of your informational interview. Your reflection must address:
Who you interviewed (including the interviewee’s name, title and organization) and why you chose this person;
How the interview has helped guide your future career or academic choices;
How the interviewee’s process of understanding leadership impact your own definition and development of leadership;
How you prepared for this ...
