Welcome and Essential Questions

 

 


Welcome to the final session in this course!  In this session we'll wrap up your reflective presentation and share it with the rest of the class.  We'll also share a bit about the writing process and complete a course evaluation.  

Here are a few essential questions we'll consider in this session:

 

 

  • What criteria do I use to evaluate if my communication or the communication of others is effective?

  • What have I learned? How have I grown? Why should I share these experiences with my audience?
  • Does my work show my audience (e.g., readers and listeners) that I am an authority on the topic?
  • How do elements of context impact my decisions when preparing a piece for oral delivery versus written delivery? What are some similarities and different in the decisions I make?
  • What questions do I ask in order to gather effective feedback on my own work?
  • How do I provide effective feedback to others?
  • When should issues of correctness and registers of English impose restrictions or grant freedom for my writing?
  • How do I ensure that I am intentionally manipulating punctuation and structures, rather than making errors?
