Grade Justification
What grade do you think you've earned this semester? What evidence supports this conclusion?
1. Portfolio Essay 1 Reflection on COA Summer 2012, Professor Sabir’s English Class_______
The narrative will look at the six (6 ) weeks and the themes we looked at this semester such as women’s empowerment.
Students can also consider what he or she learned about him or herself this semester. What have you learned about the discipline you are studying here: reading and writing that you plan to carry forth into your lifelong pursuit of learning.
Please also comment on the texts and whether or not they were helpful in this process. You can also talk about the instruction, culture of the class and the teacher. You can also offer suggestions.
2. Portfolio Essay 2 Reflection on revision process__________________
Look at the writing process and what you have been learning about yourself as a writer. Take two essays and talk about the planning, research and revision strategies you used. It helps to choose an early paper and compare it to a later paper. Often you can more easily see the differences in the writing and one's mastery of certain concepts. Also discuss skills you need to improve and how you plan to address that. Include the Write Course Video: "Revision Strategies," the two chapters from Writing with a Thesis, and Diana Hacker's Rules for Writers, in your bibliography and also site at least one in your analysis of your revision process. Also cite your essay(s) used as examples in this second essay.
Additional narrative considerations for the portfolio essay:
The second essay has students look at the writing process and discuss their own writing process: the topics chosen, the information used, revision strategies, writing as a process. This should include a definition of the difference between editing and revising and a value statement on the place for both in composition.
I am really interested in discourse about audience and how that shapes or determines how the writer approaches her topic.
I am also interested in discussion of the revision process, and whether or not seeing writing as a work in progress or a draft, liberates or stagnates the creative process. (Students are to use examples from their writing to illustrate these points.)
I'd also like students to think about and give at three specific ways how they have grown as writers and thinkers this semester.
Each essay (1 & 2) should be minimally 1-2 pages (250-500 words each).
