You are now ready to transition into the college-level reading and writing in your major courses. In order to meet your academic goals, you will need to make a plan. You will share your plan with your professor in this week’s assignment, the Week 8 Reflective and Planning Postscript.
First, reflect back on what you wrote in your Week 1 Discussion posts about the strengths and weaknesses you started with and think about what you have learned about college reading and writing in this class.
Second, write a document of at least two paragraphs. In one paragraph, discuss your plans for overcoming the challenge(s) you faced during this course. In a second paragraph, elaborate on your plan(s) for continued improvement as you continue your studies.
Third, make sure that each paragraph
(a) begins with a Point sentence;
(b) includes at least one concrete and specific Illustration (or example) that supports the Point sentence; and
(c) includes an Explanation that interprets the Illustration and ties the ideas together.
Fourth, remember to use the steps of the writing process, including planning, drafting, revising, editing, and proofreading when creating your document.
Finally, make sure your document meets the APA formatting guidelines you have learned in class.
****First week Strengths/weakness: excelled in reading. Hard time with a thesis, grammar and reasoning, and organizing.
