final reflection essay 4

No hard work needed just a normal work.

Format: 5 pages double-spaced, 12 point Times New Roman font

8 ½ x 11 inch paper

MLA guidelines (see Gilbaldi)

Prompt:

What I want you to do is prepare a thoughtful “reflection” of the semester. Incorporate what you’ve learned about and from the different writing styles and persuasive techniques, subjects, authors, films, handouts, etc. that we’ve studied as well as any of the other “lessons” (i.e. political strategy, freedom, equality, tolerance, civil involvement, civil protest, religious and secular faith, hope and healing, etc.) you’ve learned through our class. In addition to the aforementioned you have to include thoughts on the Faith and Doubt documentary as well as your experience dealing with COVID-19 and how it’s altered your educational process. Your final piece must reflect thoughtful critical thinking – do not provide a quick “cookie-cutter” piece of work. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/film/showsfaith/
