For your Final Reflection, discuss what has changed as a result of your experiences in this course in terms of yourself, your heart, your knowledge, and your beliefs about child and adolescent health (as well as adult health).
Remember– these are your reflective thoughts about you as a public health practitioner, as a health educator, or as a teacher for children and adolescents. There are no “right” or “wrong” answers to the questions below. You are simply capturing in writing what has changed since the beginning of the semester. You are describing who you are and what you believe at this moment in time by reflecting back on your learnings for children’s & adolescents’ health as a result of your experiences in this class.
Note: The instructions for this exercise are written to be intentionally broad. This exercise is intended to provide you the freedom to deeply reflect on what emerges as most significant and important to you. The hope is that you will write for your own benefit — not for a grade, and not for the intent of seeking a particular response from me. I intend to respectfully meet you where you are now as a student, a learner, and an emerging educator. Picture yourself in the role of educator, armed with all the new knowledge and understanding you have worked hard to achieve this semester, and answer the following prompts
