Where are you? Today. In your life. In your plans. In your family. In your mindset. Where are you? When you take time to stop and observe your present circumstances, what are the desсrіptors? What are the emotions? What are the realizations? As you begin the final semester ahead of a major life accomplishment, take some time and mindfully explore your current state of mind. You may answer this writing prompt with a physical location, but I hope you take the opportunity to go deeper. Reflect on the journey that led you to this place and time you find yourself–to this person you have become. Your critical reflective writing assignment is an ongoing writing activity providing you the opportunity to think deeply about each step of the Senior Capstone process. The goal of this complimentary and parallel writing assignment is to delve deeper into the reasons why you are making the choices you are making in your Capstone journey. This weekly activity also provides an opportunity for tracking changes in the attitudes and behaviors experienced in your relationship with the content, the process, and yourself. You will be able to follow your progress in understanding the material, and the insights gained from the reflective process serve as an important resource for the final Capstone paper. A detailed desсrіption of the assignment and how it fits into the student learning outcomes is provided in the student assignment guide, along with samples, expectations, and assessment criteria. NOTE: Please do not fail to put your name and assignment name on the paper! Even though this is a less formal assignment, it is still an ″academic″ assignment. I do not want to see ″text speak″. You may personalize your writing. Feel free to use the first-person pronouns all you want. But please take care to proofread and edit your work before submitting it. Eliminate writing that does not fit with your main idea, and tighten up the writing as best you can. Don′t use 20 words when ten or fewer are stronger. Rubric
