Reflection is the process of analysing an activity with a view of changing an existing approach or adopting a new perspective on an experience (Nguyen et al 2014). Boyd and Fales (1983) state “that this process is central to understanding the experiential learning process”. According to Trottier (2015) Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) is the procedure of an organisation gathering and examining information that is available to anyone. Web sites and applications dedicated to Social media is one of the most popular in OSINT for information generation and widespread dissemination; security and intelligence agencies can capitalise on these opportunities to covertly study, things such as terrorist group behaviour, cultural contexts and recruiting …show more content…
Boutellier and Henizen (2014) suggest that technological advancement develops a lot quicker than our social and political development, often it grows before the safety standards and security can be implemented to protect users. Hancock and Hoffman (2015) build upon on this stating the people that use technology do not get a chance to understand the true potential and fully exploit the technical equipment because of the speed that it is updated or replaced that forces an organisational change. According to Allen and Lewis (2001) reflection can be beneficial in changing circumstances and help plan for the future; additionally they state that reflection empowers a pre-emptive approach to undetected opportunities and will help avoid becoming a victim of circumstance. Relating this to the dynamic cyber environment, OSINT operators may not actively reflect and might find it challenging adapting search techniques for new social media software and technological hardware updates which may jeopardise their future employability. The research suggests that important issues may arise in both organisations and people from technological development and change that may be mitigated through the use of reflection techniques. A department like OSINT section may need to evolve every time there is technological or sociological development in their specific field equally the personnel within it will need to have the capacity to be able to implement this
...hat has worked and what hasn’t. If a student for example is taking blood for the first time and something goes wrong, they don’t find the right vein. Reflective practise would help that student to understand what he/she done wrong while carrying out the procedure and how they could stop that from happening again. Not is only reflective practice good for pointing out the bad factors of something but can also be there for when a procedure goes exceptionally well. If a health professional finds a certain technique works better than what’s in place already, reflective practise is a good way to shear the information you found with other colleges so they can carry out that particular producer. Gibbs 1988 is an example of reflective practice, he uses six stages when doing reflective practice which include Description, feelings, evaluation, analyse, analyse and actions plan.
Reflection, as explained by Moon (2013), is the process of looking back on an event or experience and thinking about it and learning from it. Reflection, which is learning through experience, is not a new concept. As humans, we naturally reflect on our surroundings and experiences on a day to day basis in order to make sense of them. (Norman, Vleuten and Newble, 2002). In a professional context, reflation is vital for a practitioner to learn and improve their practice. By using their own experiences, practitioners are able to analysis, and in turn, adapt or improve specific areas of practice
Reflection can been described as a process of turning experience into learning, that is, it is a way of exploring experience in order to learn new things from it. According to Boud, eogh, and Walker (1985:19) they define reflection as “those intellectual and affective activities which are engaged in by individuals to explore their experiences in order to lead to new understandings and appreciations”. Reflection often involves taking the unprocessed, raw material of one’s experience and engaging with it Inorder to derive sense from what has occurred. It often involves exploring messy and confused events and focusing on the thoughts and emotions that accompany them. Reflection can be undertaken as an informal personal activity either for its own sake or as a part of a structured course. Reflection may focus on special activities taking for instance workshop activities, events of the past experience for example, what learners easily recall from prior experience, or concurrent activities in the learners’ workplace and community that can act as a stimulus for learning. In this context, the word event is used to refer to any activity from which learning may result, whether it happens regardless of its location that is whether in a classroom, a workshop, a formally scheduled placement, or in everyday
According to Osmond & Darlington (2005, p.3), as a professional social worker that critical reflection could be a fundamental approach to contribute to their work. Besides, the best value of the critically reflective approach might have a chance to engage with different ideas, knowledge, feelings and theories. Thus, critical reflection is a necessary approach to every social work to contribute them to be professional.
Reflection is defined as a process of reviewing an experience which involves description, analysis and evaluation to enhance learning in practice (Rolfe et al 2001). This is supported by Fleming (2006), who described it as a process of reasoned thought. It enables the practitioner to critically assess self and their approach to practice.
Schön (1987) in his work identifies two types of reflection, these are reflection-in-action (thinking on your feet) and reflection-on-action (retrospective thinking). He suggests that reflection is used by practitioners when they encounter situations that are unique, and when individuals may not be able to apply known theories or techniques previously learnt through formal education.
Reflection is a key element of the human learning process. It can be used to justify aspects of practice and legitimise the knowledge gained from it, as opposed to traditional forms of learning.
Reflection is a process that begins with looking back on a situation thinking about it, learning from it and then using the new knowledge to help you in similar situations in the future. We need to evaluate through reflection to examine whether change is needed. We can then decide what action is needed and what we would do the next time we are faced with a similar situation. It might not necessarily be something you have done wrong, it may well be you were happy with the outcome of a situation you had some input into and would do again. It may have been something you did differently that had a positive result and
The ability to reflect critically on one’s experience, integrate knowledge gained from experience with knowledge possessed, and take action on insights is considered by some adult educators to be a distinguishing feature of the adult learner (Brookfield 1998; Ecclestone 1996; Mezirow 1991). Critical reflection is the process by which adults identify the assumptions governing their actions, locate the historical and cultural origins of the assumptions, question the meaning of the assumptions, and develop alternative ways of acting (Cranton 1996). Brookfield (1995) adds that part of the critical reflective process is to challenge the prevailing social, political, cultural, or professional ways of acting. Through the process of critical reflection, adults come to interpret and create new knowledge and actions from their ordinary and sometimes extraordinary experiences. Critical reflection blends learning through experience with theoretical and technical learning to form new knowledge constructions and new behaviors or insights.
Information Security Analysts are the guardians of information systems, they arrange and execute efforts to establish safety to shield an association's PC frameworks and systems from invasion and cyberattacks. Analysts help companies avoid, screen and react to breaches and cyberattacks. Analysts have to constantly adjust in order to stay ahead of cyber attackers, stay exceptional knowledgeable on the most recent strategies assailants are utilizing to penetrate PC frameworks and on IT security. Experts look into new security innovation to choose what will most successfully ensure the safety of the company they work for. This may include going to cybersecurity meetings to hear first hand research from different experts who have encountered new sorts of assaults.
After reading the two pieces from Yancey, and Royster and Kirsch, I thought for a while about what the word ‘reflection’ means to me. I have never looked at the word in relation to my writing. Writing has never been a strong (or favorite) suit of mine. I have always despised re-reading/ revising my paper, for the fear of not wanting to seem inadequate to other writers (I would compare it to that of hearing your own voice on a recording, thinking, “Do I really sound like that?”). Besides writing, I would best describe reflection as looking at the past, and analyzing your feelings during that period as well as your current feelings for what took place. I used to not use reflective practices in my daily life, but this year I made it a goal
According to Reid (1993, p.306)”Reflection is a process of reviewing an experience of practice in order to describe, analyse, evaluate and so inform learning about practice”. This means making sense of practice and learning from it. It is when a nurse looks back and focuses on a certain experie...
Technology is constantly advancing in the world. With the constant usage of it everything we do changes in the world. Shifting up the games of society, making its labors and other work easier than ever. Transforming the ways of information sharing, conversation, and interaction in general. Various technologies are now a big part of most of the people of the world’s everyday lives and are incredibly supportive to the general public and government alike. They are extremely advantageous due to the constant upgrading of the various tools they provide us with everyday. Some feel the human race has lost a certain survival instinct, or organic strength due to our new pushes in technology, but one could argue that they actually strengthen the masses making people using this equipment more knowledgeable than ever before. The proof is witnessed by multiple people every day with the growing application of the many tools given to them. The surge in know-how shows.
To remain competitive and employable in the twenty-first century workplace, society today must conform to the changing demands. Technology is one of the principal driving forces of the future; it is transforming our lives and shaping our future at rates unprecedented in history, with profound implications, which we cannot even begin to see or understand.
Keeping up with technology is difficult, tiresome, and firms find it very costly to keep at pace with it. Technology rapidly and constantly keeps on changing. Being at par technologically requires extensive research and strategic analysis of acquiring new innovation. Enforcing new technology requires staff retraining and in some cases making employees redundant.
