Thing 5: Reflective Practice

Having recently finished a mentorship program with one of our librarians, I was required to write a piece of reflective learning about my experiences with the program and what I felt I gained from it (Essentially a two page document saying 'lots'). I'd not done much reflective practice before this, but it turned out to be something I'm fairly comfortable with, and fairly useful.

Which doesn't mean I'm going to write a long essay here on what I've gained from CPD23. Firstly, I've only been doing it for a couple of weeks, which doesn't give me a great deal to think back on, and secondly, I have deadlines on two pieces of coursework, which have to take priority at the moment, since actually getting my professional qualification would be helpful going forward...

Briefly, I've learned that twitter isn't as terrible as I had assumed, blogging is more effort than it appears, and not as many people use RSS feeds as probably should.

There's another reflection week during Thing 12, where I hope to have the time to look back and reflect on how poorly I did Thing 5
