LAP Lambert Academic Publishing Reflective Writing: Effects on Engagement in Writing and Literature

Most of a student’s time at university is invested in reading, thinking, and discussing with others what has been read. This process is followed by rethinking about what we were thinking, and considering how these prior thoughts have been transformed into new ones. Reflective writing is a personal and sophisticated process, which might be considered as a documented form of thoughts fostering the thinking process, exploration, and comprehension in return. Therefore, reflective writing might arguably be employed as one of the most significant learning tools in tertiary education, reaching far beyond what we often achieve in the classroom.
