This gives learners time to reflect or review their learning is central to the whole process. This is in keeping with the ‘Learning to Learn’ principles where reflection is seen as a very important part of individuals’ learning programme.

Within the Learning Challenge Curriculum the final subsidiary learning challenge is handed over for learners to reflect on their learning. The idea is that learners present their learning back to the rest of the class or another appropriate audience, making the most of their oracy and ICT skills to do so. Initially, learners may require a great deal of direction so the reflection time may need to be presented in the form of a question which helps them to review their work.

Although reflection is seen as a concluding part of the prime learning challenge, there will be continual opportunities for learners to reflect frequently, especially as each subsidiary learning challenge comes to an end.
