Description
Answer all 5 questions as thoroughly as possible. You should have a full paragraph response to each question.
- How would you grade your participation in this class? Give yourself a letter grade and explain how you arrived at that grade. Take into account the following:
How often do you check into our class online?
Do you post in the discussion more than once per week?
Do your discussion posts offer conversation-promoting questions?
How thorough are you in looking things up for every reading?
Do you keep your instructor informed of things going on / challenges?
Are you prepared with the reading material?
Do you connect or apply our readings to events, material, etc., outside the class?
- What is something you’ve achieved or accomplished in this class? I want to hear about something of which you are proud of. Don’t be shy or self-deprecating!
Did you learn anything?
Have you gained it in some way?
Have you succeeded at something?
- What is something that is not going really well for you? What’s the hardest thing for you here? Take some time and explain it:
Why is it a challenge?
What are you doing about it?
If you’re not doing anything about it what could you do about it?
How might you go about finding solutions?
- In what ways have you contributed to the community of our classroom? [this question is a lot like question 1 but focused more outward than inward.]
- What grade do you believe you have earned thus far in this class and why? Be really thorough in your explanation.
