Questions for REFLECTION #1
- What did you know about the sub-topic/ theme before starting the SBA?
- What was the main issue/ idea in EACH of the artefacts you selected for your sub-topic?
- What new knowledge was gained and how did the artefacts affect your thinking on the sub-topic/theme?
Tips for Answering the questions
Question 1: This response should be focused on your view, no matter how vague, on the sub-topic/theme. A general impression is acceptable because you would not have had in depth knowledge because this question is focused on before you started your research.
Question 2: The focus of this question is the literal content of each artefact. The examiner wants a very succinct summary of each artifact and this summary can be focused on either the issue in the artefact, or simply the main idea; what the artefact is about.
Question 3: New knowledge refers to information that was gained after research was conducted. Therefore, it is necessary to clearly state an evolved view, based on reading the artefacts. In other words, there should be some change in your view, even a small shift. There should also be a clear link between your new view and the three artifacts.
