Reflective Learning

When students reflect on their experiences, they develop a genuine understanding of what they’ve studied. Reflection reinforces and enhances their learning. It allows them to better retain information and build on earlier discoveries. While journal writing is central to this process, students also reflect on their experiences through discussion, writing, drawing and producing visual presentations.  A famous quote at The College School from our past Head of School, Jan Phillips is, “An experience is only as powerful as the reflection upon that experience.”
