ABSTRACT A complete learning experience of a student happens because of the three A’s – Acquisition, Application and Assimilation of knowledge – The Triple-A philosophy. While acquisition of knowledge happens in the classroom through lectures, and application happens through projects and assignments, it is assimilation which is the most difficult to capture as it requires reflection. We propose K-Reflect tool for this purpose. For any learning to become effective, the context is the key. The K-Reflect tool conjugates the KASH learning framework with a specific context. This paper is a practical enumeration of K-Reflect tool used in the rural context. Researchers found a positive correlation between the K-Reflect scores of students in various subjects and their respective scores in final examination thereby establishing that the use of this tool by students enhances their academic performance.
