Get Started“Overall I’m very impressed with the elegant simplicity of this product! It’s a VERY intuitive interface. I found it so easy to search the question bank and drag and drop.”
“REFLEQ is really about putting content and metacognitive theory into practice...which is important for us here in the university setting, and in working with pre-professionals.”
“When I work on research projects, I find it difficult to manage my schedule and define personal growth goals. REFLEQ helped me feel on top of everything, providing a valuable avenue for something often ignored in academic projects: honest reflection on my own work, research, and progress.”
“The metacognitive questions fit my instructional practice and the seminar’s trajectory. I rapidly got in touch with how each student processed course material, and level of preparedness for academic work. REFLEQ questions are linked to competencies like transfer thinking - a clever and useful methodology.”
“I found REFLEQ a meaningful way to uncover my own ideas and thesis direction. In the past, an instructor might send out a google doc asking us to reflect, but I never knew the purpose. My responses would disappear, never to be seen from again. To be safe, I always wrote generic, positive responses that I imagined were what the teacher wanted to hear. I didn’t really get anything out of that experience. ”
