Learning Portfolio & Reflective Journal (Human Resources management)
- Performance Management
- Reward Management
- Talent Management
The approach to the use of a learning portfolio that is being adopted in this Unit is that it is a ‘working portfolio’ that includes samples of work-in-progress, samples of completed work and reflections on the learning process associated with the skills and knowledge learned in the Unit. The learning portfolio will not be assessed but it provides a framework and source for students to help them reflect on the various elements of assessment for their reflective journal.
The student will be required to complete and submit a reflective journal as part of the assessment in this Unit that is viewed as part of their learning portfolio. It is generally recognized that reflection is a cognitive process, that it requires the individual’s active engagement, that it involves examining the manner in which one responds to a given situation, and that there are different conceptual and practical approaches on how to reflect and how to teach reflective practice (Rogers, 2001).
Practice examples, a framework for reflection, literature on reflective practice and prompts to situating journal writing will be provided during the semester.
