FORMAT FOR REFLECTION PAPER
Step 1
Provide a brief summary. Write a narrative of your experience with the topic
upon which you are reflecting. Detail factual information, as well as your
feelings and impressions.
Step 2
Compare your experience with your prior knowledge. Introduce any ideas
that you had encountered. Point out why you feel the concept pertains to the
experience. For instance, if you are reflecting on a lesson plan you had
taught, you could discuss articles that you have read on writing and teaching
lesson plans.
Step 3
Analyze your experience according to the theoretical concept. Illustrate the
ways in which your experience diverged from what the theory expects as
well as how closely it conformed to theoretical expectations. Discuss why
you feel the theory either described or did not describe your experiences.
Step 4
Edit your reflection paper. Look for the thesis of your paper. Adjust your
paper to keep a consistent focus on that thesis. Check for grammatical and
stylistic errors.
