Critical Reflections 1. Reflection/Differentiation 1. When completing other practicum experiences at university I realised there is so much information to be absorbed from the classroom experience.

In modern society, young women can personally choose how their lives will pan out. They can choose to pursue education at a college or work towards their careers.
