Reflective practice supports critical thinking and assessment skills through analyzing one’s own life experiences, and the role of reflection in learning has been long recognized. However, drawbacks of many reflective practice assignments are their broad scope and lengthy written requirements. I propose that the reflection process is robust enough to support management student learning through short written tasks as well. Three examples of brief reflective assignments are presented suitable for management educators teaching undergraduate, graduate, or non-credit learners: (1) writing an organizational story, (2) a reflection about learning from adversity, and (3) a goal-oriented personal change. Learning outcomes and student responses have been positive, and the assignments have also been an insightful teaching experience for the instructor.

Reflective practice supports critical thinking and assessment skills through analyzing one's own life experiences, and the role of reflection in learning is well reckoned. Reflective practice, the habit of looking back and analyzing one's own life experiences, is a process that supports learning and develops critical thinking skills. The role of reflection in learning has been recognized for decades and the reflective observation learning style may provide an important means of deepening student understanding and engagement especially with better technology integration. Many management educators recommend reflective practice for managerial and professional development as learning to reflect is a key element in mastering the important management skill of self-awareness and developing management competencies. Adopting a mixed method qualitative approach, the aim of this chapter is to delve on the current scenario of the reflective practices and technology integration in management education.

<p class="JLDAbstract">Engaging large first year classes in tertiary education poses a number of significant challenges, many of which have been addressed in the literature. One area that has not received the kind of attention it warrants is the context within which student learning takes place. This paper reports on the processes used to engage a large first year management class in an Australian university and how the context of the classes shaped activities and student responses to these activities. A key finding was the explicit acknowledgement of the role of context in shaping student behaviours and thus impacting on student engagement and learning outcomes.</p>

Critical thinking skills is a very important aspect that students must have in learning chemistry, especially in solving problems that require deeper alternative solutions. This research aims to analyze the relationship of critical thinking on student learning outcomes on salt hydrolysis material. In this research, there were 48 students sampled, the technique used for sampling was purposive sampling. For data analysis in this research using correlation and regression tests with a probability value of 0.05. From the results of the linearity and correlation tests found that students 'critical thinking skills have a relationship with student learning outcomes on salt hydrolysis material by 0.599 and the regression results also show the same thing that there is a significant relationship between students' critical thinking skills with learning outcomes on salt hydrolysis material that is seen from the comparison of the significance value (0,000) with a probability value (0.05), (0,000 <0.05) means that there is a positive relationship between critical thinking skills with student learning outcomes on salt hydrolysis material in SMAN 1 Kampar. The contribution or contribution of students' critical thinking skills to learning outcomes in the hydrolysis material is 35.9% while the remaining 64.1% is influenced by other factors. The higher the level of critical thinking skills of students, the greater the significant functional relationship to learning outcomes, and also the greater contribution / contribution of critical thinking skills to student learning outcomes.Keywords : Critical thinking skills, learning outcomes, correlation and regression analysis, salt hydrolysis

Abstract: The problem in this study is the lack of student activeness in learning causes low learning outcome percentage 52,94%. The form of research I use is classroom action research (PTK). Data were collected through observation, questionnaires, interviews, and test sheets, and the research phase was conducted in 2 cycles. The result of the research shows that the study of cooperative type listening team in the implementation of cycle 1 turns out that the students have not maximized their opinions so that the achievement of the value has not been maximized. It is seen from the students' learning result in cycle 1, the highest score is 80, the lowest score is 50, average 66 and the percentage of mastery of 58.82%. However, in cycle 2 students have been able to express the answers in groups well, and in cycle 2 ended the teacher's efforts to improve the learning outcomes with the highest score of students obtained by 90, with an average of 76, and the percentage of mastery of 94.11%. To improve student learning outcomes, teachers use the appropriate learning model and in accordance with the material that is taught, and critical thinking patterns and responsiveness of students can be honed by expressing opinions in front of the class.Keyword: Cooperative Learning Model Type Listening Team Improves Learning OutcomesAbstrak: Masalah dalam penelitian ini adalah kurangnya keaktifan siswa dalam belajar menyebabkan hasil belajar yang rendah persentasenya 52,94%. Bentuk penelitian yang saya gunakan adalah penelitian tindakan kelas (PTK). Data dikumpulkan melalui  observasi, angket, wawancara, dan lembar tes, serta tahap penelitian ini dilakukan dalam 2 siklus. Hasil penelitian menunjukan pengkajian terhadap hasil belajar menggunakan cooperative tipe listening team dalam pelaksanaan siklus 1 ternyata siswa belum maksimal  mengemukakan pendapat sehinga menyebabkan pencapaian nilai belum maksimal hal tersebut dilihat dari hasil belajar siswa pada siklus 1, nilai tertinggi 80, nilai terendah 50, nilai rata-rata 66 serta persentase ketuntasan sebesar 58,82%. Namun pada siklus 2 siswa telah mampu mengungkapkan jawaban dalam kelompok dengan baik, dan pada siklus 2 berakhirlah upaya guru untuk meningkatkan hasil belajar dengan nilai tertinggi siswa di peroleh sebesar 90, dengan rata-rata 76, serta persentase ketuntasan sebesar 94,11%. Untuk meningkatkan hasil belajar siswa, guru menggunakan model pembelajaran yang tepat dan sesuai dengan materi yang di ajarkan, dan pola berpikir kritis dan tanggap dari siswa dapat diasah dengan mengemukakan pendapat didepan kelas.Kata kunci: Model Cooperative Learning Tipe Listening Team meningkatkan Hasil Belajar
