Annotated Bibliography Reflection

you will critically analyze your annotated bibliography creation process through critical reflection. 

Purpose:  Critical reflection allows you to examine gaps in knowledge and  evaluate and critique the process through the use of higher-order  critical thinking skills. 

Audience:  This assignment should be directed at your scholarly peers, and you may  assume that they have only a casual familiarity with your topic or  issue.

Content/Subject:  Your critical reflection will include a DEAL model analysis to the  process of creating an Annotated Bibliography: Describe, Examine, and  Articulate Learning (Ash & Clayton, 2009). 

• Next,  in 3-5 pages that include a formal introduction and conclusion, present  the following headings: (DEAL) Describe, Examine, and Articulate  Learning. 

1. Describe the experience objectively. Who? What? When? Where? Why?
2. Examine the experience via the following reflection prompts: 
   • Personal Growth:  Your strengths, weaknesses, skills, assumptions, etc that emerged  through this experience. The effect on service toward others. Your  personal need to change, and how you will accomplish it.
   • Civic Engagement:  Based on what you were trying to accomplish; what approaches did you  take and why? Due to this experience is there a need to move to a more  systemic approach? (in other words, how did you gather the documents you  used in your annotated bibliography and would you do this process  differently next time? Why? Why not?). 
   • Academic Enhancement:  What academic concepts apply to the annotated bibliography process? Is  it similar to any previous experience? Do we need to adjust the process?
   •  Articulate Learning. What did I learn? How did I learn? Why is it important? What will I do because of it? 
   •  Reflective  practice should showcase learning and analysis. It should be grounded  in the tone and theories of coaching science, sport management, and  exercise science. Reflection should provide details and critical  analysis.
