NU Reflect
NU Reflect is a system designed by the University to support students' reflective learning, as well as offer the tools to support Personal Tutoring.
Incorporating reflection in programmes and modules provides an effective way to support students to understand their own learning processes, and to develop their awareness of their own skills and abilities and evidence these, applying theoretical knowledge to real experiences and supporting employability.
Accessing NU Reflect
NU Reflect is integrated into Canvas and is accessible in both your Account view and from any in-course menu. If NU Reflect is not visible within a course, it can be added by accessing Course Settings, clicking on Navigation and dragging NU Reflect into the visible navigation list (remember to click Save at the bottom of the page). Alternatively, NU Reflect can also be accessed at https://reflect.ncl.ac.uk.
With the Reflection tool, students can create reflections, reflect against competency frameworks, and share reflections with their Personal Tutor, specific users, or groups.
Students can reflect against structured skill sets, which can be customised on a programme or module basis, and categorise their reflections.
Groups and Communities can be created with the purpose of effectively sharing, organising, and communicating with others.
Meetings can be created by staff with any student within the NU Reflect system, allowing meetings to take place in various contexts, such as Personal Tutor meetings or group meetings for undergraduate projects.
