Rough Outline of Final Reflection

Make sure your review the prompt for the Final Reflection (go to Blackboard>Submit Assignments>Major Writing Assignments>Final Reflection).

If you choose Option 1, you should be focusing the outline of the reflection on two pieces:

  • The things you prioritize and value about writing most.
  • What you are most proud of for the writing you produced in this class.

If you choose Option 2, the outline would follow this:

  1. What I hoped to learn/do (What were my expectations, what were my original plans, what skills did I hope to develop?)
  2. What I did (What I wrote/made, what steps I took to complete the tasks, what went very right, what went very wrong?)
  3. What I learned (What I’d do differently next time, what I can’t wait to do again, what I’ll never do again, what feedback was particularly useful?)
  4. Goals for my writing (What skills I want to develop; what habits I want to keep, change, or adopt; what information I need to learn; what types of writing I want to try; AND THE MEANS by which I will attempt to realize these goals. In other words what is my plan—i.e., goals + means to realize those goals—for my continuing writing? You can think here about goals in terms of next semester, writing in your major, writing in your personal life that you want to do, and writing in your potential career path)

Also consider what direct quotes from your writing that you will use if you do Option 2.

  2. I would choose option 2 and talk about my initial expectations and goals for myself in this class, what I did as I wrote my essays, what I had learned such as analyzing texts, and also my goals for writing in the future such as grammar, time management and things I could have worked better on.

  3. I chose option 2 and wrote about a number of things and strategies that I learned, goals I’ve achieved, and things I’m excited to continue working on in the future.
