Assignment Question

MODULE 8 ASSIGNMENT PROMPT

Final Reflection: In this module, you have been studying the concept of metacognition and learned that it is what separates successful learners from ones who may not be as successful in their learning. That is because to be successful, and in any task, for that matter, it is crucial to consider and evaluate the process of accomplishing that task.

Compose a written reflection based on your metacognitive process. Compose a comprehensive reflection of your achievements in the course, specifically focusing on, but not limiting yourself to, the seven course learning outcomes. Talk about what you read, wrote, understood, learned, not only about the content of the course, but also about yourself.

Use all rhetorical strategies at y our disposal and take advantage of all the textual artifacts you have created during this class and utilize the content of the Mini Reflections you composed throughout the course to piece together this comprehensive document.

Elements Required in the Reflection: 1. Discussion of all three stages of the Metacognitive process as they relate to your learning in this course. 2. Discussion of specific learning outcomes listed in the Syllabus (listed below) and your confidence in the learning of the content.

Student Learning Outcomes: Through successful completion of this course and its scaffolded assignments, students will: 1. Assess and describe the situations surrounding various kinds of writing (WPA CT2) to understand how authors write to meet a variety of goals at once. Alon g the way, you will interpret that writing for intended and unintended meaning (UE CT1).

2. Write multiple drafts of a document (WPA P1) that incorporates feedback from peers, illustrate the creation of new ideas, and show re – thinking of your existing ideas .

3. Analyze the language and documents used by groups of people who come together, establish their identity as a group, and achieve their combined goals (WPA RK2).

4. Characterize various document types (WPA KC2 & KC3), known as genres, and identify trends and expectations in how those document types do the work — and reflect the thinking — of a writing community. This will help you assess different points of view, assumptions, and/or arguments (UE CT2).

5. Use rhetoric to create artifacts that meet specific goal s and address specific audiences (WPA RK4) based on a variety of situations that call for writing. This will reflect the student’s ability to communicate effectively for a determined purpose (UE CC2).

6. Create documents that incorporate the collaborative, socialized aspects of writing yet avoid plagiarism by appropriately employing paraphrasing, summarizing, and quoting (WPA CT4) of credible sources. You will decide how to make those incorporations using rigorous arguments based on criteria and evidence (U E CT3).

Keep in mind that if you use someone else’s words, definitions, ideas, whether via quoting, or paraphrasing, or summarizing, you are required to cite them and follow the MLA format in doing so to prevent plagiarism. This means that some of your writing in the document will include in – text citations and that your list of sources will be included within a Works Cited at the end of your writing
