Development cluster - self reflection
Posted: Fri Oct 14, 2022 2:12 pm
I have started working at my placement centre and currently finishing my Diploma in childhood education.
im really struggling to write journal entries for self - reflection and referring to ECA code of ethic and EYLF.
This is the question:
Keep a reflective journal while on vocational placement. A minimum of eight (8) reflections (entries) are expected. The intention is for you to gather insights that support and enrich your decision-making about what happens and why, and to reflect on what you might need to change or improve.
For this reason, each entry is not just a description of an event/experience. It may describe what was felt by the student and why; theoretical perspectives might be referred to; pedagogical practices can be critiqued as examples.
Using core professional documents – such as the ECA Code of Ethics and EYLF (principles and practices – pages 11-18) is expected, as they not only inform your professional practice, but also help you to reflect on what you have done well on Vocational Placement and what you still need to improve on.
Each entry will be dated. Each entry will also need to be cross-referenced to at least one of the above mentioned documents, as evidence they can match their pedagogy (practice) with professional documents (best practice)
Desperately needing help as im due for completion in 6 weeks
