Errors that you have made, areas of content that you experienced difficulty with and areas that were pointed out that could be improved. B. Clearly indicate what you have learnt from the feedback and how you used the feedback in your learning. Specifically mention what you did to address the feedback or correct errors that you have made and indicate which specific module resources helped you to review the work that needed attention as pointed out by the feedback. Also indicate how you will approach things differently in future as a result of this learning. A. Doing referencing was new for me because I didn’t have any preparation in doing referencing the right way. In my post-graduate studies, we never did any form of writing and referencing. Doing referencing and getting it under the belt was a big challenge for me. B. This subject was constructive and help me a lot to know where my errors were made and how to correct them so that I don’t repeat my mistakes. My biggest challenge was doing the APA referencing format correctly. I revisited my study material of week 4 to ensure I do the referencing correctly. 6 Going into the future I will ensure to leave enough time to prepare for an assignment where I have to reference my sources because doing referencing isn’t easy and is time consuming when you attempt to do it for the first time. 7 Reflection on learning in Assignment 02 Write a clear and logical description of: C. Errors that you have made, questions that you answered incorrectly, areas of content that you experienced difficulty with and areas that were pointed out in the feedback that could be improved. D. Clearly indicate what you have learnt from the feedback and how you used the feedback in your learning. Specifically point out what you did to address the possible lack of understanding in specific content areas that led to the errors that you have made. Point out which specific module resources helped you to review the work that needed attention as indicated by your results in the MCQ questions. Lastly, indicate how you will ensure improved understanding in future as a result of this learning. C. Assignment 2 went considerably better because I ensure I had enough time after my first assignment. No area stood out nor was point out as a root cause for my mistakes. I however repeated my referencing mistake at question 14 and 29. I didn’t find this question difficult the error was my own reading error I made. There was confusion in selecting the correct answer for question 9 and 36. D. Doing the MCQ in the weekly self-assessment definitely helped a lot with the preparation for assignment 2 the only downfall was not knowing whether or not my answer is correct.
