Discussion Topic:

Please post your reflections on what you have learned during your practicum experiences and in this course:

Take a few minutes and share at least one important lesson you have learned or a surprising insight that you have found during your Practicum experience. How does this lesson on insight inform your growth as a professional? Does it lead you to re-evaluate of adjust your long-term goals in any way? How would you evaluate your practicum experience this term? Would you encourage another student to engage in a practicum at your setting? If so, what advice would you give them to maximize the experiences there? If not, why not?
