Description
Measure supplied reflection-start minus practice-end time.
Adult-learning records distinguish self ratings, comparison criteria, acknowledgments, feedback states and recognized credits. Closing a feedback item can mean completion or decline, while a reported rating gap does not establish competence. Supplied priorities and evidence references need the broader learning context.
Measure supplied reflection-start minus practice-end time.
When to use this tool
Use Practice Reflection Lag Time when you already have practiceEndSeconds, reflectionStartSeconds and need to measure supplied reflection-start minus practice-end time.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter practiceEndSeconds, reflectionStartSeconds. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read lagSeconds. Use the output convention below.
Return reflectionStartSeconds-practiceEndSeconds, preserving a negative gap.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| practiceEndSeconds | Practice End Seconds | Required. Finite number. |
| reflectionStartSeconds | Reflection Start Seconds | Required. Finite number. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| lagSeconds | Lag Seconds | Required. Finite number. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- Clocks must match. No practice, reflection quality, learning, engagement or suitable delay is assessed.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Review the complete goals, criteria, learner preferences, evidence and recognition policy. Use an appropriate educational assessment for learning decisions; local labels, time gaps and supplied credit balances do not establish outcomes or informed agreement.
