STLR Student Individual Reflection Appointments
STLR at UCO
UCO students, if you’ve had learning experiences which you believe have expanded your perspectives in one of the UCO STLR tenets (below), but the experiences weren’t STLR-tagged, were a compilation of multiple experiences, and/or were not provided by UCO, you can meet with a Transformative Learning evaluator during a Student Individual Reflection Appointment (SIRA) to talk about your experiences and potentially earn STLR credit.
These free appointments to assess your STLR growth are conducted as a 50-minute interview, designed to help you describe your experiences in a non-threatening atmosphere. The results from your assessment will be submitted to UCO’s STLR office to be added to your STLR Snapshot (https://stlrsnapshot.uco.edu). The STLR Snapshot is like a second transcript that displays your transformative learning experiences.

SIRA History
The STLR office thanks Charles Gosset, certified Life Purpose Coach (ACC) and founder of a company called Full Integration Coaching in central Oklahoma, who piloted these “SIRAs” during the 2019-2020 academic year. In his words, “I believe UCO’s Student Transformative Learning Record (STLR) program has the potential to revolutionize the way we learn, work, live, and play in the world – and who we become along the way. That’s why I’m so passionate about providing opportunities for UCO students to reflect on their transformative learning experiences.”
