Elaborate and Describe: Expand on the details of the situation and reflect on the emotions, reactions, and outcomes.
Analyze: Conduct a critical analysis of the situation, comparing and contrasting what was learned with relevant theories and literature.
Revise Approach: Identify areas for improvement and revise the approach based on the new insights gained.
New Perspective (Trial): Discuss how the new learning will be incorporated into action.
