Each reflection will ask:
- What event did you attend?
- This can simply be the speaker(s) names or topic of the presentation so Kummer Student Programs can match it to your attendance check-in.
- What was something you learned?
- This does not have to be earth-shattering (but it can be).
- What was interesting about this?
- Why did you choose to attend this session?
- What feedback would you give for the event?
- This is a wonderful opportunity to give feedback of any kind related to the presentation, topic, event, etc.
