In addition, I paid particular
attention to the quantity and quality of written responses the students provided on the SWRF
over the course of the project. These observations provided insight into the students’ interests in
monitoring and self-evaluating their progress, particularly in achieving their goals, as well as the
value they placed upon the whole idea of recording self-reflective and peer-initiated feedback of
their goal strategies. Since this self-reflective and self-monitoring process was a new experience
in a project-based learning experience for the participants in this study, it was imperative to
acknowledge any nuances in the written feedback students shared with me throughout their use
of Student Weekly Reflection Forms.
