INTRODUCTION

experience or particular situation on the basis of own consideration (Gaus, 2017). These kind of
writing practices helps in determine insights that a person express or gained during their learning
session. Main thing that requires to consider while writing reflective essay is to open up own
thoughts and emotions in order to paint a real picture in front of others. In this report, the
reflective essay is going to determine learner’s own experience based on their weekly activity as
well as an analysis based on the approaches of future challenges and expectations during the
university course.
MAIN BODY
The reflection of this report is based on my learning performance and behaviours during
the weekly activities (Hosein and Rao, 2017). During my sessions I have learned so many things
which can assist me in my professional career development. Thus, I have paid my maximum
attention towards learning from such modules so that I can easily enhance my skills as well as
can overcome my weaknesses with the help of effective strategies.
What
During the week sessions, I have learnt so many things that can help me in enhance
learning during my coursework. The session of Week 1 was based on the introduction, module
and RM unify applications. During this, I have learnt so many things that can help me in studied
online or in analyse policy and practices of university. The main objective of this session is to
introduce LSST digital college by distributing all the login details to each student. My
experience during this session was quiet nice as a discover how to learnt how to access own
account over digital college application. The session of Week 2, was based on digital literacy,
technological skills and reading skills. This is one most important topic for each student and for
me as well. Thus, I paid my maximum attention towards each lecture in order to enhance my
technological as well as reading skills. The activity of Week 3 was based on academic writing
skills in which I have learnt effectiveness of communication for academic and professional
context. In this week, I also developed my understanding towards Harvard referencing and its
citation which is one of the crucial aspect of academic writing. In the Week 4, I developed my

understanding towards reflection, formative feedbacks and CW1 workshops. This session was
interesting and it helped me in analysing own perspectives and thoughts in order to effectively
represent them in front of others. Week 5 was all based on analysing research skills of
individual’s. thus, in this week I have learn how to evaluate different sources in order to gather
relevant information and data easily. The session of Week 6 was all based on workshop for MS
Word as well as formative feedback. At last, the activity of Week 7, was discussed MS OneDrive
in order to enhance develop digital technology skills. All the sessions based on weekly activities
was very interesting and I have learnt so many things that can assist me in present as well as
future career practices.
So what
The main objective of weekly sessions in our college is to develop knowledge and
understanding of individual’s based on their coursework area (Gonçalves, 2019). Thus, during
these sessions I analysed my skills and knowledge criteria in which I needs to make changes so
that I can attain maximum advantages in future. As during the session, I discovered that I can
grab so many things easily when they belong to my area of interest. I also analyse that my
communication and team working skills is also good because I communicated effectively to my
professor in order to represent my own views over specific topic. One major issues that I faced
during the session is belongs to management of time. Because it takes so long for me to gather
appropriate data during week 5 while I learnt about research skills and source evaluation. My
session of Week 2, 6 and 7 was quiet interesting because I have learnt so digital technological
practices in it. At the time of study session, I felt that I needs to learn so many things as well as
requires to work on time management, research skills, academic writing and so on in order to
work professionally in
Now what
On the basis of my learning experience on the grounds of weekly activities, I have
analysed that I needs to work on my potential and interpersonal skills in order to effectively
implement all the course activities. The major area of improvement is time management,
research and data collection, effective learning and so on (Sanchez and et.al., 2019). These are
required area on which I needs to work effectively so that I can develop my knowledge criteria
for future practices. In this process, I can take support of my professors who can provide me

appropriate direction. By taking advice and guidance, I can analyse how to manage all my work
on time as well as can gather all the information easily. Furthermore, in order to meet university
expectations, I require to effectively develop my knowledge towards information technology
which is one major area that covers all the modules and sessions of learning. These kind of
approaches will assist me in present as well as future for developing professional career (Farrell,
2015). This is my reflection over the weekly activity of university based on my learning
experience and process.
CONCLUSION
From the above report it has been summarised that it is essential for a writer to pay their
maximum attention toward own experience and learning in order to effectively represent a
reflective essay over it. Major criteria of reflection writing are based on an analysis of thoughts,
work process, learning, performance and so on. Thus, it is required for a learner to effectually
provide an explanation of their thoughts, feelings, reaction and so on upon a specific topic or
situation. The above reflections also determine learning experience of individual as well as
further strategies that they can implement for future and career development.
