Critical thinking, reflective writing: learning?
Abstract
One of the main roles of educators is to help students become prepared to be active members of a society. To achieve this goal, teachers are encouraged to help students develop the ability to reflect and think critically. Reaction papers are written assignments devoted to doing so. A case study was conducted to explore the relationship between reaction papers, reflective writing, critical thinking and learning. The main findings demonstrate how useful reactions papers are to facilitate learning, reflection and critical thinking.
