Self-Reflection


Now that you have reflected on some of the main components of the first two units, consider your work thus far in more depth:


1. What was your goal for Unit 2 as per your self-reflection at the beginning of the unit?

    • Provide specific examples of skills and/or techniques used to help you meet this goal
    • Provide specific examples of where you are still experiencing challenges - this should be in relation to skills and/or abilities that you still need to practice in future work.
    • Provide 2 specific strategies you will employ to help you overcome these challenges as you move into Units 3 and 4.

    2. Consider the following in relation to the essay responses you've done thus far in the course:
      • What were you thinking to yourself when you were trying to write your personal and critical responses? What type of things were you saying to yourself?
      • How did you monitor the progress of your writing?
      • What could you do differently next time to improve the process and thinking you used for writing your assignment?

    Keep these goals and reflections in mind as you work your way through Unit 3; as outlined, metacognition is important for one's own growth in skills and in learning. If you'd like to discuss your goals with your teacher so he/she can help you meet them, please feel free to do so.
