Ideas for Self-Reflection

A. This course as learning experience.
• How do you see yourself as a writer?
• Has your attitude about writing changed? How?
• What have you discovered about your own processes of/for writing? What writing processes do you use and how have they influenced you?
• What part does workshopping with other students play in your own writing processes?
• How important to you is conferencing with your teacher or a writing tutor?
• What do you think is "good writing?" How do you evaluate your own writing and that of others?
• Have you learned to apply your knowledge about writing to situations outside the
UC-D composition classroom?
B. Your own development as a writer during this course.
• How has your writing changed during this period?
• What do you see as your greatest strengths as a writer?
• What areas of your writing are you still working on?
HELP YOUR READER see these changes, strengths, and--yes----weaker areas in your writing. Refer to specific writing on your blog to show your reader examples of your progress in key areas of your writing. These examples should be ited using quotation & linked to the original post in which it was found. You might talk about some of the following: ideas, content, insights, development, organization, focus, word choice, paragraphing, language conventions (grammar, punctuation, spelling). Your reader might be interested to hear you talk about your voice and style.
