Reflection and Growth during the IQP Journey

 Project Abstract

This project was intended to develop a useful method for a process of reflection about team
and intrapersonal growth, as well as to investigate personal growth during the challenging
off-campus IQP. Utilizing writing for personal reflection and video for group reflection,
students were given the opportunity to reflect both individually, as well as in groups, to
better understand areas of individual and group growth while completing the off-campus IQP.
Through the aforementioned mediums, a book of reflections and a 30-minute video were produced,
showcasing some of the important growth that students experience while completing their IQP.
