SELF REFLECTIVE ESSAY
Please find below important information, regarding the third assignment: “Self-Reflective Essay”. In this document you will find Due Date, Key Details of Essays, Essay Question, Instructions and FAQ. Please note that whatever information is given on this sheet is deemed to be the primary information, students should use these details as accurate and correct and overrule anything found elsewhere .
How would you describe your experience/understanding/position in response to ONE of the following concepts that the lecture/course addressed?
In this final assessment students will be asked to reflect on a key concept (either provided through the lecture or one of their own choosing) and reflect on its capacity to help them understand the problems/solutions that policies aim to address. The essay is a self-reflective one rather than an argumentative essay and requires students to narrate their own critical processes in thinking about these issues.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Some of the material we will cover may be personal, lived as an experience and embodied, you can if you wish discuss whatever parts of your background/ identity/orientation that are important to you and that you feel matter in the discussion. But, please also note that you should write about what you are comfortable with. There is no obligation to bring up your identity and parts of you that you wish not to write about in self reflecting on the course’s content.
You can self-reflect merely on the level of ideas and keep much of yourself to yourself if you wish. The important feature is that you and we as a group learn the praxis of self-reflection.
Potential Questions to ask yourself.
(Please keep in mind the following questions are guidelines to help you start self-reflecting; they are not questions that you are obliged to answer. They are here to help you brainstorm)
For example:
“I agree with X (2013), because I have found that………”,
“Even though I can understand X, I disagree with this as in my experience……..”,
“I have never really considered the importance of X, which highlighted ….”
What is reflective writing?
In an academic context, reflective writing demonstrates an understanding of the connection between theory and your personal experience or beliefs. Students are required to produce reflective writing in order to develop the habit of critical reflection about social issues with respect to Gender, Sexuality and Diversity.
Can/Should I write in the first person?
Being that it is a self-reflective essay, it is encouraged that you do write in first person, but no penalties will be given for those who don’t. The most important thing is that the criteria for the assessment is met.
Should I write my essay as a standard essay within an introduction, etc?
No. You are not obliged to write the essay with a standard intro-body-conclusion. Although it will help your reader if you can highlight your main take away message and give it to them early. That said, you may if you wish write in a standard essay format, no marks will be taken off for either standardized or creative non-fiction.
How then should I structure my reflective writing?
Reflective writing shows evidence of reflective thinking and although considered a less formal and more personal approach to other forms of academic writing, it still needs to follow a carefully structured style that meets the academic rigours of professional writing. There are a number of ways to structure a reflective piece of writing but typically the following points are central to any reflective writing piece:
Do I have to write in a formal academic language?
No. You are encouraged to be creative and subjective, rather than distant and objective. However, the underling rules of good writing and grammar apply.
