Please respond to the following in a reflection paper (essay format) no longer than 3 pages in length:
How are things going so far in this class? Are you understanding the material? Are you keeping up with the reading and the assignments (this question relates to #4 below and they could be integrated together)?
Write about what YOU can do to support yourself as a learner.Start: What is something you will start doing to support yourself as a learner?Stop: What is something you will stop doing to support yourself as a learner?Continue: What is something you will continue doing to support yourself as a learner?

Please write an honest self-evaluation of your participation in this class up to this point. Of a possible 20 points, how many points do you believe you have earned? Please make an argument for the number of points you believe you have earned and why using the suggestions in “a” though “d” below to guide your argument and the scale at the bottom of this page to determine your grade. I can, and will, adjust your grade (up or down) if your argument is inaccurate or poorly developed, so please be sure to make a strong case for yourself. Please award yourself a specific number, NOT the range. For example, tell me you believe you earned 16 points, NOT between 16 and 17.5, for example). Please explain why you believe you earned the grade you awarded yourself by discussing the following:
your preparation for class (did you regularly do the reading prior to writing your discussion board post each the week?, did you regularly complete and submit assignments on time? did you contact the instructor if you had questions?)
your presence and attentiveness while studying and doing your homework (did you do your best to avoid distractions like close other browsers on your computer, go somewhere quiet?),
your engagement and contributions to other classmates’ discussion board posts (e.g., did you contribute to discussions in a meaningful way?, did you respond to classmates’ comments in a relevant and meaningful way?, were you a role model to other students?).
your engagement and contribution overall (e.g., did you regularly “check in” throughout the week? did you pace yourself in a way that was effectively by finding time to fully engage with overview videos, reading assignments, and completion of homework?),
If you believe you have earned an A (Superior–you have gone above and beyond the minimum expected), award yourself between 18 and 20 points. If you believe you have earned a B (Excellent–you have done more than the minimum expected) award yourself between 16 and 17.5 points. If you believe you have earned a C (Good–you are meeting the minimum/average of what is expected) award yourself between 14 and 15.5 points. If you believe you have earned a D (Poor–you are falling short of the minimum expected) award yourself between 12 and 13.5 points. And, if you believe you have earned an F (Failing–you have fallen far short of the minimum expected) award yourself between 0 and 11 points.
Please follow these instructions:
Your written response should be no longer than 3 pages in length, or a video 2 to 3 minutes in length.
