INTRODUCTION Reflective practices are defined as the ability or skills to reflect upon one's experiences oractions for encouraging continuous learning. The reflection enables to critically analyse andevaluate the theories which regulate or inform the routine actions. Thus reflection can beconsidered as a great way to explore the innovative skills and to review the self efficiency. Thislearning approach develops judgement and perceptions on the basis of past events or theexperience insights (Gould and Taylor, 2017). The essay will discuss the reflection on learningthe different concepts of enterprise action through the module. It will also discuss that howreflective practices can play significant role in improving research skills and abilities as well asto develop more detailed understanding of the subject. My engagement and contribution in self study groups The critical reflection has helped me to understand that without concepts of independentand self direct learning I cannot achieve my skill development objectives. For instance duringselection of my research question I realised that how I can integrate my personal interest with myacademic learning and real world phenomenon. The entire module also helped me to understandthat by exploring the ways and subject I cannot meet the desired objectives instead the propersupport in terms of team work and guidance from the experts is mandatory at this level oflearning. In order to evaluate my participation in learning and impact of team on my performanceand learning it is necessary to use reflection. This approach has helped me to practically applythe entrepreneur actions into my learning practice. Benefits of independent learning My first perspective regarding this module was not very positive. I considered it verydifficult to pursue and think on the module areas without seeking much involvement from thetutors. However when I started learning the subject area and terms such as innovations and thelatest topic which can be used as my research area then I realised that it is not as complex as Ithought earlier. Though there were several challenges but the various attempts to resolve them aswell as to proceed as per the instructions of tutor helped me to encourage my efficiency. One of the most important area which influence me is that with the concept ofindependent learning I was not limited to follow a particular model or theory. Instead I had anopportunity to explore the wide range of theories which can be practically implemented to the1

relocation of migrant labours due to Brexit. For independent learning I was required to highlymotivated and confident with my skills as well as research area. The learnings from module independently allowed me to be aware of the researchlimitations as well as my ability to handle them. When I explored the module throughindependent learning then it gave me a valuable knowledge that how I would have deal with thesame situation if I was also a part of the automotive industry or the migrant labours. Thisconceptualisation is vital for the broad understanding of the module (Knott and Scragg, 2016). Understanding of team work concept The feedback has been an essential part of the improvement process as well as to evaluatethe accuracy of the functions. To make my work more effective the support of self study groupwas vital for me. The individual members in the groups had different perspective and opinion onevery issue. Thus whenever I received any kind of feedback from them it was very valuable,realistic and mixed. On certain aspects such as research questions or methodology there weredifficulty in making the common agreement because every team member believed their opinionas more precise. However such limitations of group work were resolved by discussion. It gave me avaluable lesson in problem solving approach and effect of collective work. Since our subject isvery wide thus various team members explored different areas. For instance some members werein examination of Brexit impact on automotive industry while some were analysing its impacton immigrant labours (Dhingra, Sampson and Thomas, 2018). I believe that sometimes it makeprocess very time consuming and complex but whenever I got any difficulty in applying modelthen the support from the team members was valuable. I am greatly inspired that how acollective effort can result in huge number of innovative ideas and concepts.Self evaluation: analysing strengths and weakness The team working and approach of independent learning has provided me the bestevaluation of my skills. I am not good at critical thinking and research techniques. Whenever Iwork in teams I feel uncomfortable with the thought that may be my ideas will not beappreciated by the others or I may not accept their feedback comments. However when I workedin team I realised that I am good at analytical skills. I am good at interpreting and applying thetheories to practical situations. These skills are good for my academic excellence. I believe that2
