You are recommended to complete between three and five reflections which demonstrate the specific, generic and transferable skills expected of psychology graduates. Reflective entries should all be of a similar length with a word limit of 3000 words in total. You must reflect on at least one subject specific skill and one generic /transferable skill from the below table for the list of skills (from UK Quality Assurance Agency Subject Benchmark Statement for Psychology) (LO 1). It is suggested that you use subheadings in your submission to show which benchmark standard is being reflected on. Students must then use a reflective model (e.g., Gibbs 1988) to structure your reflection and address the learning outcomes (LO’s). 1. Students should evaluate why this standard is of relevance and importance to their development as a Psychologist 2. You should then critically assess your own personal status (LO2) in regards to this specific benchmarked skill(s) (i.e., to what extent have you met this standard?), 3. Reflect on how you have acquired these skills. You will need to provide evidence of your learning from across the course (i.e., Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3). As this will show how you have developed your skills in relation to this particular benchmarked standard. It is important, that you provide specific examples of how you have progressed from year to year. 4. Reflect on the targets you and/or staff identified to further develop your skills during your time on the course, in relation to the benchmarked standard. You will need to provide evidence for development activities you engaged in to meet these targets skills/needs (i.e., LO3). You may consider including evidence such as: • Reflecting on meetings with your Personal Professional Tutor (PPT) and including identified goals and targets within your SWOT analysis or personal development plan.
