Reflection

Speed and efficiency create automated actions, which may create unwanted consequences. Reflective practices help to pause, to ponder the situation before jumping into action. Also learning is enhanced when individuals regularly pause and reflect on what happened, how this matched the expectation, and how behaviors may have impacted the results.

Teaching Goal: Students practice slowing down, switching their automated responses for thoughtful pauses to get in touch with more profound insights.

Meta Goal: Noticing the personal speed, and developing comfort in pausing, exploring more patiently the issues for greater understanding of complexity.
