dc.description.abstractOverview of the session and topic: Reflection is an essential part of course design that supports a wide variety of learners (McRae et al. 2018). Using the DEAL model (Ash and Clayton 2009, Loy et al. 2021) in F18, we developed activities where our students considered feedback about their writing in our interdisciplinary course. In our research project, we investigated the student experience with semi-structured conversational interviews. We will share our research findings surrounding these student perspectives. Our analysis revealed how reflection influenced their progress in self-assessing their writing process. We also noted that they describe developing skills that impacted their future learning and careers. Intent for the session: Participants will consider how receiving feedback from outside of their discipline can be important for students, will examine how accessible course design can influence life-long learning, and will discover how the findings may connect to their own teaching contexts. Brief overview of meaningful inclusion: In addition to the research presentation and handout, we will use an interactive platform (e.g. Padlet) to encourage reflection about our study. This resource provides an opportunity for the participants to actively engage in our session and serves as an artefact to reflect back and connect their own learning to that of others. They can connect their own learning to the learning of others. References Ash SL, Clayton PH. 2009.
