Reflection essay 主要分為兩種，一種是對事件經(jīng)歷的反思，一種是對學(xué)習(xí)內(nèi)容的反思，今天我們就來說下這兩種反思類型和寫作要求有哪些。

對以往經(jīng)驗(yàn)的反思 (Experiential Reflective Essay):

在一些熱門的專業(yè)里，像商科，護(hù)理和教育，反思報(bào)告是連接理論和實(shí)踐的重要部分。當(dāng)你被要求反思以往的經(jīng)歷時(shí)，不要僅僅只是描述它，而是要結(jié)合課程的idea或理論，深入的討論評估它。你可以基于課程的理論和方法，用專業(yè)的技能去評估一個(gè)現(xiàn)象，從而提升自己的知識和技能。反思報(bào)告是給你一個(gè)機(jī)會去思考，反思你的選擇和行動。一般，你的反思寫作需要包含以下問題：

Description – What happened?

Analysis – Why did it happen? What were you feeling? What theories might help explain what happened? Are there other perspectives that challenge your views?

Outcomes or Action – What did you learn? What would you do differently next time?

其實(shí)同學(xué)們也可以找我們留學(xué)生essay輔導(dǎo)老師，這些內(nèi)容我們老師都會一對一的輔導(dǎo)的。

閱讀后的反思 (reading Reflective Essay):

很多課程會要求同學(xué)們寫閱讀反思(比如reflecting on an educational theory you’ve read about within a unit)，一方面的為了平衡評分機(jī)制，也是為了鼓勵(lì)同學(xué)們在閱讀后多進(jìn)行思考。通常情況下，導(dǎo)師會提示同學(xué)們，什么是他們需要反思的。反思的目的是為了讓同學(xué)們構(gòu)建并發(fā)表自己的觀點(diǎn)。一般，你的反思寫作需要包含以下問題：

Description – What is the concept, idea or theory you are reflecting on?

Analysis – Are there aspects you found particularly interesting or challenging? Does it tie in with anything you have learned in the past? Has it changed the way you think, or affirmed something you already knew?

Outcomes or Action – What else might you need to find out? Do you have any questions? How might you incorporate or apply these ideas in the future, perhaps in your professional life?
