Introduction
Reflection analysis helps in gaining knowledge regarding learning in designing tools
(Brown & Wyatt, 2010). It has been found that reflection analysis can be put into practice for
resolving problems and reducing dependency on the part of an individual. A complete
transformation of ideas and knowledge can be conducted with the help of reflection and it can
well be utilized for future purposes (Martin, 2009). This study is going to discuss about the
blog development as well as design tools that will help in dealing with difficulties that a
person comes across while writing blogs.
Reflection Based Learning
It is to be noted that this reflection learning has been conducted in relation to blogs
and design tools. In this analysis, there has been an attempt to at first share the experience
related to blog entries and design tool (Dorst, 2011). The second week was concerned with
primary concepts and with the beginning of third week, models as well as theories in regards
to design tools and blogs has been incorporated. I began to increase my knowledge on the
steps that are involved while undertaking DT and these include convergent thinking, logical
flow and divergent thinking, triple loop learning, action-based research and many more
(Cross, 2011). In the second week of my analysis, I was unable to assimilate concepts related
to DT and it only in the third week that I got sufficient understood about DT. My tutor had
guided me with feedbacks. Alongside I was able to receive some ideas or input from my team
members via sharing. Both my mentor and class mates have helped me to clear my concepts
regarding DT.
The procedures regarding problem solving was conducted in the fourth week. Mind
mapping was focussed on the workshop which in fact brought clouds of confusion (Kimbell,
