A Personal Account on Developing Evaluative Judgement and a Reflection on Why it Can Be Used to Challenge the Deficit Model

Abstract

This paper offers a student perspective on the self-efficacy that is associated with the development of evaluative judgement, observed through the course of a foundation year programme. This reflective account focuses in particular on the way feedback was received at different points in the programme, and how guided thinking has had a significant positive impact on the learning process.
