Assignment: Looking Forward, Looking Back - Reflective Essay
Length: 2,000 words
This is your first assessment. You are asked to interview a person in your family or culture, and consider the differences between their lives and yours. Consider: how did this person influence your beliefs and values? What were the differences in educational opportunities, if any, for this person and you? What challenges do you think they had when they were your age? Remember, all elders are precious holders of our culture and traditions so be respectful during your interview. You will need to get their permission to use their stories in your assignment, and make sure you de-identify them in your assignment. Here is an example of reflection models you might choose to use.
REMEMBER: use 'I' 'me', and 'my' in this essay as it is a reflective formative assessment.
