Reflective practice to bridge the theory-gap practice in Human-Computer interaction classes

Résumé

There is a need to incorporate reflective practice in students’ studies at higher education institutions to bridge the perceived theory-practice gap in Human-Computer Interaction classes. Reflective practice as an approach is employed for students to make connections between theory and practice. Reflective practice allows students to evaluate what they have learned through practice. The action research methodology was used to facilitate the research. All students who completed the assignment were invited to participate in the study, and since it was voluntary, 24 students took part. Using reflective sheets, the students were able to evaluate their current actions to improve in the future. Data were analyzed using conventional content analysis to interpret the data. The results indicated that the students were able to reflect on their work and new ideas they can incorporate into their future work. The relevance of reflective practice to bridge the theory-practice gap is highlighted.
