The AFE Community Experience journal assignments are an opportunity to reflect on your learning. Reflection-on-action is a component of critical thinking as described by Tanner’s Model of Clinical Judgment. “Reflection-on-action is critical for development of knowledge and improvement in reasoning. It is how learning from practice is incorporated into personal experience for consideration in future patient care situations” (Giddens, 2021, p. 375).
In these journal assignments, you will think back and reflect on the experiences you had at the AFE Community Experience. Each journal entry should be written within 24 hours of the completion of community experience hours.
This Experiential Learning requirement, including journal submissions, must be completed by the end of week 10.
