The goal in this exercise was two-fold: 1) to allow instructors to remember their own experiences or difficulties in maneuvering the educational system and 2) to recognize that their experience may be dramatically different than their current students. Reflection has been used in educational settings for decades as a way to solidify information, but reflection on the part of the instructors is less common. There are
