Dr. Cristina Compton
Critical reflection is about being able to move forward, using the process of reflection to develop next steps. We often begin with a conversation that focuses on specific experiences, and then expand to identify what worked and didn't work in those situations. This is our entry point to identifying possible future actions.

The distinction between reflection and critical reflection is that it's not just a reproduction of what happened, but rather a questioning of what happened in order to gain new insights.
