PSY 1129 Goerge Brown College Organizational Behavior Discussion

(1 page Reflection Journal)

Instructions for Learning Journal #1:

Section A:
REVIEW
Choose any ONE concept that we have learned about so far (in the lectures, through class
discussions, in the learning modules, etc.) from Weeks 1 to 5 that was an “ah-ha” moment
for you (what was it that you found truly interesting or intriguing?).

For This I have attached 3 power point slides of our lecture to choose a concept

EXPLAIN THIS CONCEPT IN YOUR WORDS.
*It is important that you review the concept and then write it down in your own words so
that you can demonstrate to your Professor that you truly understand the material.
DO
NOT SIMPLY REGURGITATE THE CONCEPT STRAIGHT OUT OF THE TEXTBOOK AND DO
NOT SIMPLY COPY AND PASTE FROM OTHER WEBSITES. If you do use other sources, YOU
MUST INCLUDE THE IN-TEXT CITATIONS AND FULL REFERENCES AT THE END.

Section B:
APPLICATION
In light of the above concept and based on what you have learned thus far,
 What have you learned about yourself that has perhaps surprised you?

 Is there anything that you will change in terms of your behaviour going forward? For
example, think of how you interact at work, what would you do differently now? Or
what would you continue doing and why?
