The cycles of inquiry in a simple description is a reflective process that can be drawn between action and reflection. The cycle requires taking an action that may cause the learner to have a different outcome on how they do certain things. Then the process is reflected on, which should cause a different type of action, so the learner will cycle constantly between action and reflection (Ramsey, 2006).
The cycle is used to enhance imagination and inspire new approaches to learning (McGill et al, 2017).
In terms of my project, the cycle can apply to me and how I have reflected on my work, which has made me change certain actions that I reflected on. For example, I began the project writing for Highsnobiety as they discussed topics I was interested in. However, whilst writing for this magazine it was apparent the house style was more suitable for another magazine called Hypebeast. Thus, resulted in me to reflect and make a decision to change the magazine I was writing for.
