Reflective Writing
For your reflective writing-both your Unit TW Reflections and your Journal Entries, you need to begin to develop your own reflective writing.
Generally speaking, to write reflectively, students craft personal self-reflections that accounts for their experiences as writers, their relationship to writing, their sense of creativity and purpose, their strengths and weaknesses as a writer, and related issues.
According to Nedra Reynolds and Elizabeth Davis, co-authors of Portfolio Keeping: A Guide for Students (2013), reflective thinking and writing may be described in a few ways. For instance, reflective thinking and writing is how students "develop the ability to identify and discuss their choices, strengths, and learning [and composing] processes". In addition, a student's reflective writing "might outline the skills and strengths" demonstrated in that student's ePortfolio and might explain why the student chose certain ePortfolio artifacts, i.e., explain why certain audio files, PowerPoints, hyperlinks, Word files, images and/or video, etc. were chosen for inclusion. In general, Reynolds and Davis think reflective writing not only explains artifact choices but also represents students analyzing their own written and visual rhetorical choices .
