Description
Reflective learning statement
The first appendix, Appendix A, (possibly your only appendix) should be your ‘Reflective Learning Statement’. The statement provides and an opportunity for you to demonstrate your awareness of the need for continuous learning and development throughout your future management career.
In this instance, the statement should be structured around your ‘Programme goals’ and should:
Explain how the work you have undertaken through the process of completing your Management Enquiry has enabled you to develop significant personal learning that has helped you to achieve some of the specific objectives that make up the Programme goals. You should specifically include your reflections upon:
How you used the feedback provided on your ‘Enquiry proposal’ to enhance the conduct of your Enquiry?
How you dealt with any problems you faced?
How, either during practice, or on reflection, you might have avoided or alleviated such problems?
What might you do differently if you were to undertake the Enquiry (or a similar type of study) again?
What personal future learning needs have arisen through you undertaking this reflection and how might these learning needs be met?
You will find Programme goals on the module Blackboard site in the ‘Key Information’ section.
You should aim to write around 250 words for the Reflective Statement (these words do NOT count towards the word limit of the Management Enquiry report but there are marks awarded for it – see Assessment Criteria in Appendix J).
