Write a reflection paper, start with an introduction where you state any expectations you had for the reading, lesson, or experience you’re reflecting on. At the end of your intro, include a thesis statement that explains how your views have changed. You are expected to provide 4 separate reflections 1 page each. Do not simply summarize the course content of each week. To do so, is NOT critical reflection. Instead: • Reflecting on your own professional or academic practice • Scrutinizing an experience and the way you dealt with it or experienced it. • Apply some of the course concepts to that experience • Evaluating your project and considering how to do it better next time • Reflecting on things you have read and link theory with practise/reality Some examples of questions that you might ask yourself as you reflect for this assignment are: Before and experience What do you think might happen? What might be the challenge? What do I need to know or do in order to be best prepared for these experiences? During an Experience: What is happening now, as you make decisions? What do I need to know to better understand Indigenous research? Do I have enough information? What do I need to do, or say in order to make Indigenous research more effective? What am I learning from the lectures and discussions? After an Experience: What are my insights immediately after, or later when I have had time to think and reflect on the information? What did I value and why? Is there anything I would have done differently or wish I had more information? What have I learnt and how can I apply this information to make me a better researcher with Indigenous people? Use the PowerPoint presentation I have provided to write the reflections Week 2 reflection: Reclaiming Traditional Ways of Knowing in research, And Indigenous Research: A Methodology week3 Reflection: powerpoint-Reflexivity in Indigenous Health research, And a video titled: Decolonization Is for Everyone. link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QP9x1NnCWNY) week4 Reflection: powerpoint-Indigenous (W)holistic Theory And Article titled: Indigenous Wholistic Theory: A Knowledge Set for Practice (https://www.erudit.org/en/journals/fpcfr/1900-v1-n1-fpcfr05254/1068933ar.pdf) Week 5 Reflection: powerpoint-Critical race Theory, And Research Paradigms: Why this matters
