This article details the process of self-reflection applied to the use of traditional performance indicator questionnaires. The study followed eight speech-language pathology graduate students enrolled in clinical practicum in the university, school, and healthcare settings over a period of two semesters. Results indicated when reflection was focused on students' own clinical skills, modifications to practice were implemented. Results further concluded self-assessment using performance indicators paired with written reflections can be a viable form of instruction in clinical education.

Digitalisation is an issue of growing importance at all higher education institutions (HEIs). It is often developed and driven bottom-up. In this regard, the intended self-assessment tool that the present paper aims to present “DIGI-HE” will support higher education institutions in developing their individual approaches to foster digitisation, methodological and conceptual approach. The present paper will outline the methodological procedure of design and subsequent validation of the tool. In a time when experimentation with, and mainstreaming of digital technology use is progressing to develop holistic strategies that encompass learning and teaching, research and innovation, as well as cooperation and outreach DIGI-HE will represent a self-reflection tool adapted to higher education to support the institutional efforts, to develop and implement strategies, which purposeful and holistic in comprising both missions, education and research. It will also furthermore attach particular importance to the need for dialogue among all actors and stakeholders in digitalisation, and address areas of activities relation to cooperation and outreach, including internationalisation strategies and practices.

В статье ставится проблема развития рефлексии младших школьников. Раскрывается значение рефлексивных практик как продуктивного инструмента формирования учебной самостоятельности, способности к самооценке, творчеству и самосовершенствованию. Выделены принципы построения образовательной среды, способствующей личностному развитию школьников в рамках рефлексивно-позиционного подхода. The article raises the problem of developing the self-reflection of primary school students. It reveals the significance of reflexive practices as a productive tool for the formation of educational independence, the ability to self-assessment, creativity and self-improvement. It highlights the principles of creating an educational environment fostering personal development of schoolchildren within the framework of the reflexive-positional approach.

In this study, we compared adolescents’ actual (expert assessed) front crawl swimming skills to their self-assessment in two conditions: in standard swimming (wearing a swimsuit and goggles) and in a simulated risk scenario (swimming in plain clothes without goggles). We postulated that education focused on water competencies is fundamental in preventing drownings. Experts evaluated the skills of 21 female and 21 male adolescents in both standard and challenging conditions. All were low-skilled swimmers aged 14–15 years. Participants were asked to self-assess their skills before and after each trial. Boys and girls covered the same distance in both trials. Their self-assessment did not change regardless of the difficulty of the conditions. Girls assessed themselves more accurately than boys. However, boys who underestimated their skills showed greater ability to utilise the experience gained from performing the task for a more accurate self-assessment. In conclusion, adolescents should be educated in total water competencies, and not merely in swimming skills. For girls, “water readiness” is thought to broaden their ability to adapt their swimming skills to nonstandard conditions. Aquatic education for boys should focus on developing self-reflection in order to create a long-lasting responsibility using their own swimming skills.

We reflect back on our 2004 monograph reviewing the implications of faulty self-judgment for health, education, and the workplace. The review proved popular, no doubt because the importance of accurate self-assessment is best reflected in just how broad the literature is that touches on this topic. We discuss opportunities and challenges to be found in the future study of self-judgment accuracy and error, and suggest that designing interventions aimed at improving self-judgments may prove to be a worthwhile but complex and nuanced task.

The complexity of assessing musical performance as a nonverbal art form is well known within the field of professional practice. This chapter addresses key issues including the tension between assessing craftsmanship and artistry. It surveys the strong tradition of expert panel assessment that continues to be the hallmark of musical performance assessment in many contexts, in relation to both solo and ensemble performance. It also explores how such practices may intersect with the development of self-assessment and self-reflection as core professional skills for performers, as well as the processes of formative and summative assessment. Finally, it argues that the making of musicians is a lifelong process in which assessment and examination have an important role but are by no means the only factor in determining whether or not a music student’s eventual career will be successful.

Background: Medical education has traditionally been rooted in the teaching of health and disease processes, with little attention to the development of teamwork and leadership competencies. Objective: In an era of value-based health care provided by high-functioning teams, new approaches are needed to develop communication, leadership, and teamwork skills for medical students. Design: We designed and piloted a simulation-based educational activity called Peak Performance that linked a workbook, which focused on self-reflection on communication and leadership skills, with professional coaching. The simulation scenario placed students in the role of an upper-level resident on an inpatient service, followed by a small group debrief with students, a clinical faculty member, and a professional executive coach. After the debriefing session, students were invited to complete a self-reflection workbook within 1 week of the initial simulation. The final element of the curriculum was an individualized session with an executive coach. Peak Performance was offered to all fourth-year medical students enrolled in the Social and Health Systems Science required course at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine. Results: Pre-/post-self-assessments of leadership competencies were completed by students. Pre-simulation self-assessment scores ranged from 3.72 to 4.33 on a 5-point scale. The lowest scores were in “Managing Conflict” and “Managing Others.” The highest score was in “Self-Awareness.” The post-simulation scores decreased in every competency, with “Managing Others” dropping significantly from 3.72 pre-simulation to 3.36 post-simulation (0.31, P < .05). Satisfaction with the curriculum was high, as reflected by a Net Promoter Score of 91% (“excellent” > 50%). Conclusions: A novel simulation-based educational activity linked to professional coaching is a feasible and impactful strategy to develop leadership, communication, and teamwork skills in medical students. Student insight and self-awareness increased as evidenced by a decrease in competency self-assessment after guided reflection and individualized coaching.

As students are highly influenced in the learning process by their emotions, they also need a proper time for self-reflection. This paper aims to present the main insights of business students in the Bucharest University of Economic Studies, Romania when challenged to set their personal development plans, after reflecting on their own strengths and weaknesses observed especially through JOHARI window used in class and three self-assessment questionnaires—drivers (working styles), career anchors and Belbin (team roles). Building personal development plans is an important step in the educational process. Although not taken at its real value because of the young age of the students, it is an activity that should be considered each semester, very well linked to the management discipline and to the career development of students/future graduates. Keywords: Students, personal development plans, motivation, educational process.
