Week 2 Reflective Journaling Assignment
The reflective journal assignment will include peer and faculty engagement.
All students will engage and support one another by sharing their nursing
experiences in a supportive, constructive, and professional environment.
Reflective practice is a cognitive skill that demands a conscious ability to
review an experience with increased awareness of personal beliefs and
values; consequently, leading to knowledge development in nursing (Patel &
Metersky, 2021).
Your Reflective Journal is:
A personal, introspective reflection of your nursing practice and how
you apply current RN-BSN/MSN course topics including thoughts and
feelings regarding practice application and new knowledge
development.
Written in non-formal 300-400 words with no requirement of
scholarly, academic style using APA style format.
For this reflective journaling assignment, post your initial response to the
Discussion Area by the due date assigned and complete your participation for
this assignment by Day 7.
