Implementing Student Reflections or Journals: How to make them work for student learning and SOTL research

This exciting instance of the TeLEd Monthly Event Series is developed by the SDG Climate Course Group and will feature three educators — Isabela Darcie, Mathilde Sørensen, and Noora Partamies — who have used student reflections or journals in university courses to share what has worked and what hasn’t worked for them. The panel discussion will be facilitated by Yael Harlap.
