PART 2: Reflection and Self-Evaluation
2.1 Reflection on Formative Assessment
Reflection on Learning in Assignment 01
Assignment 01 introduced me to the foundations of academic
research, including identifying research problems, formulating
objectives, and developing literature reviews. I learned how to
critically evaluate existing studies and align research questions
with specific methodologies. Initially, I struggled with
distinguishing between qualitative and quantitative research
, approaches. However, through feedback and continuous
reading, I gained clarity on how each approach contributes to
knowledge creation.
This assignment also enhanced my referencing and
paraphrasing skills. Understanding the ethical importance of
acknowledging other authors’ work helped me strengthen my
academic writing. I realized that formative assessments play
an essential role in improving performance by providing
opportunities to apply feedback and monitor progress over
time.
Reflection on Learning in Assignment 02
Assignment 02 built upon my understanding of research by
focusing on data collection and analysis. It required me to
apply statistical reasoning and use research design principles
to address real-world academic issues. I learned how to
construct hypotheses, define variables, and determine
sampling methods.
This task improved my analytical skills, especially in
interpreting numerical data and presenting findings in a
structured way. I also learned to recognize biases that can
occur when interpreting data, emphasizing the need for
objectivity in research. The feedback I received highlighted the
importance of clear methodology sections and concise
