Reflection: Personalizing the Writing Process
How to write effective sentences and paragraphs, avoiding common errors, documenting your sources, and thinking critically as you write. Now, here's a scenario that will allow you to practice what you've learned.
For any writer, telling one's life story in three paragraphs can be a challenge, but an exciting one.
Initial Post Requirements:
For this reflection, write an initial post composed of three sections:
1. Your life story in roughly three full paragraphs.
2. A reflection: What was challenging about writing your life story in three paragraphs? (one paragraph minimum)
3. A Personal Writing Plan: With this assignment in mind, list some areas of written communication on which you'd like to focus in order to become a better writer.
Some areas for writing improvement include (but are not limited to):
- grammar and punctuation
- sentence structure
- paragraph structure
- organizing thoughts
- using the best wording
- writing with clarity
Written Assignment - Diagnostic Writing Sample
For this assignment, write a summary paragraph about your chosen article. The summary should include:
- An introductory sentence that identifies the title of the article, who wrote it, and the main idea of the article.
- At least 3-5 body sentences that identify supporting details and any questions the article left unanswered.
- A sentence that comments on the effectiveness of the article's conclusion.
- A concluding sentence that restates the main idea and provides closure for the paragraph.
- An APA style citation for the article. For more information on APA, click on the Resources tab in this course.
