| Summary: | Methodological studies, as well as teaching practice attest to the central role of reflective thinking in class. As a fundamental skill, which once learned is applicable to any domain of knowledge, reflection is the prerequisite of critical thinking – a goal university education pursues too.

With a focus on both individual and shared experience, the role of emotional response is viewed as a motivating factor.
