                                              New motion:
                                              \n[Replacing last meeting’s] Motion 15: Students in EL courses should reflect on several questions about their experience before completing the survey. SAGE 000 EL and all 499 courses completed for EL credit must complete a written self-reflection using these questions.
                                              \nProfessors in other courses may elect to incorporate these reflection questions directly into the experiential learning course as a written assignment – e.g., a set of journal exercises, internship reflection assignment, final reflection paper, or whatever works for the professor and student.<\/p>\n

                                              The questions are as follows:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

                                              \nWhat were you hoping to learn from this learning experience? Were you able to shape the experience so that you got what you were hoping for?
                                              \nWhat knowledge or skills developed while in this experience were relevant to your undergraduate coursework? (explain) What knowledge or skills developed while in this experience broadened your perspectives on the world? (explain)
                                              \nWhat problems or struggles did you encounter in this experience, if any? If so, how did you solve them? What did you do well? (Consider your time management, organization, teamwork, and\/or professionalism as well as your own knowledge or expertise). In what areas would you most like to continue to strengthen your knowledge or skills? Has this experience changed your post-graduation plans? If so, how? Has it helped you understand what you do or don’t want to do with your career?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
