Spring 2017 English Department Assessment: Self-Reflective Essay



For this assignment, you will be producing a self-reflective essay to demonstrate that your work in English 1A has helped you to understand and achieve GELO Learning Goals 2 and 3  (see below) associated with the course. This means you should reflect on and refer to the work you’ve produced in the class—especially the main assignments, but you may use other evidence as well—to show your progress. You may even refer back to your Directed Self Placement materials to help demonstrate your progress. Your goal is to convince your readers (SJSU writing instructors) that you have gained insight into what makes writing effective and that you’ve begun to develop strategies for producing such written and multimodal texts.

Your reflection should answer the question: 
How does the work you have produced in your class reflect the qualities of effective writing as outlined in ENGL 1A learning outcomes?

ENGL 1A Course Learning Goals (GELOs) 2 and 3:
2. Perform the essential steps in the writing process (prewriting, organizing, composing, revising, and editing) and demonstrate an awareness of said performance
3. Articulate an awareness of and write according to the rhetorical features of texts, such as purpose, audience, context, and rhetorical appeals

Requirements:
  • 500 words (two full pages)
  •  MLA Style

 Due: Thu 5.11*—Hard copy only, no email

*Note new due date
