Ramsey (2006) describes reflective learning as  “a deliberate process of undertaking what we will call cycles of inquiry,” (p.5) and that “the term ‘cycle’ is used to capture the way a reflective learner moves between action and reflection (p.5). 

At the beginning of this project, I knew I wanted to write about places that I live near and so searched for a publication that fit with this concept. Initially, I came across ‘Britain Magazine’ and planned to write content for this publication. However, upon reflection, I realised that the magazine did not fit perfectly with the vision I had for my project. This led me to then find ‘Weekend Journals’ which was the perfect fit for the content I wanted to write.

One of the actions I decided to take was choosing to refine my project to consist of mainly copy and images rather than multimedia content. On reflection, I believe this was a good decision as it allows the website to capture the same feeling of calm that reading the print magazine does, rather than the reader being distracted by audio or video when trying to digest the content.
