GENRE Five-Pаrаgrаph Reflectiоn THE WRITING ASSIGNMENT GUIDELINES Purpоse: The student shоuld reflect on his or her writing experiences in this course. Five paragraphs (Intro, three body paragraphs, conclusion) Sources: Do not use in this essay. Formality: This is a first-person singular essay. You are writing for a broad, academic audience, so adhere to the other general conventions of academic writing. If you need to refer to me, instead of writing "you," refer to me by my name (Ms. Bryant). WRITING PROMPT Reflect on the ways you have improved your critical thinking and communication this semester. In this class, critical thinking is demonstrated (in part) through the following: Careful reading that extends beyond mere comprehension Annotating texts Summarizing texts Being able to identify an author’s full argument—not just the main claim but the reasons for it, too. Analyzing and evaluating arguments Developing your own thoughtful ideas and arguments Making complex connections between different authors’ ideas Effective communication is demonstrated (in part) through the following: Careful attention to word choice Careful attention to audience expectations and level of formality Qualifying claims (avoiding overstatement or understatement) Using the conventions of academic writing Using adequate details in your writing Illustrating your points effectively Explaining illustrations (examples, evidence) in detail Accurately reflecting authors’ views Using source material in context Maintaining an objective tone Maintaining respectful communication with the class and the instructor NOTE: Remember, we often learn at least as much from our failures as we do from our successes. Sometimes our first attempts using skill are effective. Other times, though, we learn by trying and falling short, in the process learning what will work better the next time. Therefore, you can focus on your successes and/or on lessons you have learned through trial and error. ESSAY WRITING INSTRUCTIONS Structure/Development This essay should have an introduction (3-6 sentences) three body paragraphs (5-8 sentences each) and a conclusion (3-6 sentences). Introduction: (3-6 detailed sentences) Give background information about your critical thinking and communication skills prior to this semester. Provide an overview of what you’ve done in this class to exercise and improve those skills. Next, create a direct, clear thesis sentence (with three points) about the ways (or the extent to which) you have improved your critical thinking and communication since the beginning of the course. Body Paragraphs: (5-8 detailed sentences) Write well-developed paragraphs that use PIE: Provide a point by identifying how and how much you improved the skill you’re focusing on in that body paragraph. Illustrate by describing in detail the assignments and other features of the course (or your own maturity, resilience, and persistence) that facilitated your growth and improvement. Explain by analyzing in-depth how and why these examples helped you. Conclusion: (3-6 detailed sentences) Sum up your points, reiterate your thesis (without repeating the wording of the thesis sentence or topic sentences). Your conclusion should also touch on the broader significance of the improvements you made. Which skills do you wish to improve further? Good luck! I look forward to reading your essay!
