Abstrakt: Herbert Simon, a Noble Prize economist said, "What information consumes is rather obvious. It consumes the attention of its recipients. Hence a wealth of information creates poverty of attention." Our students are flooded with more information and avenues of engagement with that information than ever before. The exercise discussed is the Reflective Learning P.O.I.N.T. and is meant to gain more of the students' attention, embed course content, and provide weekly feedback. This teaching case outlines the way this exercise is constructed and deployed and explores variations of the exercise as well as the benefits to both the student and instructor.
