Write a reflection on CR Exercise, RIP Exercise
Choose one CR Exercise, RIP Exercise, or reflective assignment you believe has been instrumental in helping you develop at least one of our course skills. Write a reflection on this assignment
- Make a claim about a skill that this assignment demonstrates your aptitude in;
- Introduce this assignment as evidence to help support this claim. (Note: instead of pasting the whole thing in, introduce an excerpt of the assignment. What could be best is to take a screenshot of the relevant portion of the assignment and include that in your response.) Use highlighting, annotation, or another technique to make the relevant portions of the work stand out to your reader.
- Patiently analyze the evidence you’ve introduced to support your claim about the skill you see in that assignment. This means pointing to specific portions of the assignment and explaining HOW those portions of the assignment represent your aptitude in this skill. DO NOT just summarize what you did in this assignment! Instead, think of this as an argument: you want to prove to your reader that this assignment demonstrates your excellence in this skill.
