Most people who are involved in community service and service learning
programs are familiar with the term "reflection." In fact, we are all
familiar with reflection... Every time we look in the mirror. The term
"reflection" is derived from the Latin term reflectere -- meaning
"to bend back." A mirror does precisely this, bend back the light, making
visible what is apparent to others, but a mystery to us -- namely, what our
faces look like. catalyst
