This study analyzed the learning effect, through a satisfaction survey and NVivo qualitative analysis, of fashion design classes using humanities self-reflection writing. The results are as follows. First, with regard to learning satisfaction, learners perceived the class as efficient and showed overall satisfaction. Second, learners' opinions were classified into self-reflection writing, design process, new experience of expression, and the understanding of class activities. Third, in self-reflection writing, learners discovered their tendencies and values while exploring their identity through deep thinking. Fourth, in the design process, learners set the design concept consistently through writing. Fifth, in the new experience of expression, learners recognized the idea produced through writing as the result of thought and considered it a new expression method for design. Sixth, in the understanding of class activities, learners were interested in the process and considered it an activity through which to build their own style in design expression. Design class activities using self-reflection writing drew a positive response and presented the possibility of educational use. The teaching method of this study is expected to be used as a humanistic method for expressions in various design fields.

This study aimed at categorizing preservice teachers' reflections and understanding their characteristics in reflective journal writing after microteaching. Thirty-two preservice elementary teachers joined in this study. As results, three patterns were categorized: Reflection with practice, Reflection to be practice, Reflection with suspension of judgment. 'Reflection with practice' changed the topology of science class in active. 'Reflection to be practice' had clear focus in reflection and suggested orientations to succeed in the next teaching. 'Reflection with suspension of judgment' made something fall into abeyance, because it couldn't provide an orientation for teaching. After discussing these results, implications toward preservice teacher education were explored.

The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of reading framework on writing for reflection when applied to inquiry-based Science Writing Heuristic approach. This study was conducted with 67 3rd grade middle school students. Thirty-two out of 67 students were assigned to R-SWH (Reading framework-Science Writing Heuristic) group while the other 35 students were assigned to SWH (Science Writing Heuristic) group. The R-SWH group has consistently used reading framework which the SWH group has not used when the inquiry-based science writing heuristic approach were carried out. The result of this study indicated that the R-SWH group showed a higher proportion of students who made writing for reflection by learning from reading materials than the SWH group. The R-SWH group used reading materials in order to understand the idea comprehensively and concept related to the topic the most, while the SWH group also used them for the same purpose as the R-SWH group but the ratio was less than the R-SWH group. In addition, as the learning activity has progressed, the R-SWH group showed that the proportion of students who transferred the science concept from reading materials into writing for reflection and the number of transferred concepts were higher than those of the SWH group. Therefore, the reading framework applied to inquiry-based science writing heuristic approach can facilitate a meaningful activity on reading and writing as a scaffolding to develop conceptual understanding.

This study aimed to analyze the effects of nursing students' learning motivation, learning attitude and academic self-efficacy on their application of reflective journal with teaching feedback. For this retrospective comparative study data from 190 undergraduate students in the health assessment skills course from 2018 to 2019. The collected data were analyzed by chi-square test, independent t-test, Ancova. After writing reflection journal with teaching feedback showed significant difference in learning motivation(t=2.10, p=.037) and learning attitude (t= 4.54, p=.034) compared to writing reflection journal without teaching feedback. However, no significant difference was found between reflection journal with teaching feedback and reflection journal without teaching feedback. These results suggest writing reflection with teaching feedback is an effective strategy for improving learning motivation and learning attitude.

Purpose: The purposes of study was to evaluate the effect of debriefing using reflection questions and writing on the critical thinking disposition, self-efficacy, and clinical judgement ability in simulation of post-operative care of abdominal surgery. Methods: The research method was a nonequivalent control group no-synchronized design. The study period was from August 22 to 30, 2016. The subjects were comprised of 34 people in the experimental group and 36 in the control group. In a simulation session for post-operative care of abdominal surgery, the treatment of the experimental group was to debrief for 30 minutes using Lasater's reflection questions and writing. For the control group, a typical debriefing was conducted in the same environment. Results: Critical thinking disposition, self-efficacy, and clinical judgement were significantly higher in the experimental group than the control group. Conclusion: To enhance the critical thinking disposition, self-efficacy, and clinical judgement of nursing students in simulation, it is recommended to debrief using reflection questions and writing.

The present study is aimed to find the effect of the activity of writing a structured reflection journal in the learning process of PBL-based programming on the logical thinking of elementary school students. To achieve the objective, this study carried out an experiment with 59 elementary school students in the 5th grade. They were divided into an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group was applied with PBL-based programming classes by learning step, including learning of the contents, its procedure, and the activities of writing a critical reflection journal while the control group received learning of PBL-based programming including unstructured reflection journal. And then the difference in their logical thinking was compared and analyzed before and after th experiment. The results demonstrated that the experimental group showed a significant difference in logical thinking before and after writing structured reflection journal (ANCOVA) at the significance level of .05, which evidenced writing a structured reflection journal has learning effect. Intergroup comparison of logical thinking also showed that there was learning effect. Those findings suggest that writing a structured reflection journal in the PBL-based programming learning for 5th grade elementary school students has a positive effect on the learners' logical thinking.

In the purpose of this study, the college textbooks of self-narrative writing and examples of classroom practice are analyzed to find a way to educate it. The self- narrative writing subject with a learning of recognization, expression, and communication with oneself, emphasizes the necessity when they become college students through entrance exam-oriented education. The research methods are as follows. Firstly, three university textbooks which include a section on self-narrative writing were compared and analyzed. The analysis highlights the needs for a textbook covering self-narrative writing more extensively and comprehensively as what is offered by the existing textbooks is limited in facilitating students to fully develop the ability of self-reflection, which should be dealt as a long-term goal. Secondly, the current discussion on self-narrative writing and examples of real classroom practice were analyzed. It shows that a step-by-step approach is required to encourage the practice of deep self-reflection to be incorporated into writing. In addition, during the writing process, various correction and feedback activities should be carried out on a macro level and gradually while the communication and feedback should take place not only between a teacher and students, but also among students. As a result, it is expected that this study will help establish a teaching model of self-narrative writing by seeking complementary points and educational directions for self-narrative writing.

This study examined changes in the quality of written arguments produced by freshman students in general chemistry laboratory classes using the SWH approach over a semester; difference in the quality of written argument between the original writing template (year I) and the extended writing template (year II); and any difference between Total Argument and Holistic Argument scores. 140 writing samples from 14 students on the year I and 228 samples from 19 students on the year II were collected. Results indicated that despite fluctuations, the students were producing stronger argument by the end of semester compared to the beginning of the semester. Original SWH template group received significantly higher argument scores than extended SWH template group. For the most of year I laboratory investigations, there was no significant difference in the quality of argument between Total Argument and Holistic Argument scores. An implication of this study would be to provide opportunities for students to practice constructing arguments using the original SWH writing template including questions, claims, evidence, and reflection.
