  10. StructuredReflection

  11. A mirror bends back light, making visible what is apparent to others, but a mystery to us -- namely, what our faces look like.

  12. In service learning, we look to develop processes that allow students to bend the metaphorical light of their experiences back onto their minds.

  13. Reflection serves as the bridge between experiences and learning.
