Gibbs Reflective Model
In 1988, Gibbs model of reflection was identified by Graham Gibbs to offer structure to
learning from experiences. This model enables a person to examine their learning experiences
while providing its cyclic nature lends itself mainly well to repeated experiences, letting the
individual to plan and learn from things that either went well or not. This model contains six
stages which are discussed below:
 Description: My teachers and mentors provide me and other students a group
assignment. The group involved five members and each member were granted with
certain task and responsibility so that we all could reach the ultimate results in the
classroom. I decided to play the role of mentor as I could understand the task better and
lead other members effectively. The topic which was given by our teachers was role of
digital tools in collaboration at UWTSD. We were needed to analyse the modern tools
that could make collaboration easier in a student’s life. The chosen digital tool was
Microsoft Office 365 (Guangzhi, Liangang and Zhengmao, 2019). Additionally, digital
skills helps me in performing my activities in effective and efficient manner by using
different techniques of digital. It provides fluency, along with comprehension tester in
making collaboration at UWTSD. Therefore, by taking all the above consideration each
member was tasked with certain responsibility such as who will make presentation, who
will speak publically to present the work, who will conduct research on the chosen topic
and much more.
