How do I write a reflective summary about a group discussion?Discussion will be based on current healthcare issues.

First, I imagine you will not be required to write this
summary until you actually have the "group discussion" (either in class or outside of
class).  To prepare for your reflective summary, I suggest you take notes as your group
talks.  It will help to have a list of the questions or issues that you are supposed to
discuss, which I imagine your teacher will provide in advance.  Under each question,
write 2-3 conclusive points your group discusses.  You can also jot down any questions
that come up which remain unanswered.


Then, when it is time
write the reflexive summary, the first thing you will do is review your notes.  A
"summary" is typically less formal in structure than a full "essay" so it is acceptable
to write write a short paragraph on each point discussed.  If you feel many answers are
repetitive (even though they are about different topics in the discussion) it is
perfectly logical to group similar answers
together.


Reflective summary suggests
that you also add some personal reflection into what was discussed.  This means that
your summary can include your own opinions.  Include ideas that you highly agreed with,
and why.  Also, feel free to include ideas that you disagreed with, and why.  To
conclude the entire summary, you might want to wrap up with an overall idea of the most
important thing you learned or took away from the discussion.
