About
What if everything you know about reflection is backwards? Most of us save reflection for the end-a quick debrief, maybe a plus/delta. But the brain forgets fast. By the time we get to "So, what did you learn?" most of it's already gone. When we weave reflection throughout the learning experience-before, during, and after-we work with the brain, not against it. People retain more, apply faster, and remember what matters. You'll discover why when you reflect matters as much as what you reflect on.
