Introduction to Reading and Writing Strategies Paper
Learning is a continuous process. It starts from what one knows, and it goes towards what one wants to know. Throughout our lives, we will continue learning, because it is a life-long process. Sometimes one picks up from what others know, and sometimes one learns from one's own experiences. Our success in life comes through learning new skills, knowledge, capabilities and attitudes. The success may be seen immediately or it may be felt at a later date.
Write about what you have learned in a particular situation. You might ask yourself several questions: (These are for guidance only! You can come up with more questions.)
- What did I do? Where? When? For how long? Why?
- What was my role (as opposed to the others involved)?
- What were my goals and objectives? How did they influence my choices?
- What were the reasons behind my behaviour? What was I thinking at the time?
- How has my behavior changed as a result of what I learned?
- What were the reactions of others? Was the result positive or negative? Based on my reflections, how was I affected?
- How does my knowledge apply to other situations?
