The next slide contains a self-evaluation board with a stack of cards, each card featuring a self-reflection statement to be used for the relevant EST topic. As each card is dragged onto the board, additional cards are revealed below (see the detailed instructions provided on the slide). Relevant statements that cover some of the main aspects of the topic have been included. The statements are based on key aspects of Curriculum for Excellence. If you want to undertake a more extensive review you can create your own statements and then save as many boards as you wish. Clicking on Self-Reflection Record on the next slide takes you to tables in which, for each statement, you can record your strengths, areas for improvement, evidence and next steps.
