Reflection: Scaffolding the blog reflections

At the beginning of this whole process, the majority of students were so lost and confused about what needed to be done in the blog reflections and in the conclusion. Some of these feelings subsided when all students were provided with a scaffold to support reflections in the blog. This may be because the scaffold provided students with a sense of direction and a clearer understanding of what was required. For me, scaffolding of the blog reflections in this way motivated me, reduced task complexity, provided structure and reduced a lot of frustration.
