Metacognitive Reflection (11/15/20)
I decided to switch things up again and create a metacognitive reflection for my blog. This week was filled with various writing techniques like creating a proposal, writing a research report, and analyzing articles then providing my own opinion on major controversial health care topics that are currently being discussed. As I am continuously learning new, creative aspects of writing to incorporate in my own -- only enhances my performance and delivery of it. At the beginning of this year, we were asked to describe how we feel about our own writing and I remember noting that I was a little discouraged and insecure about mine. Now, I feel as if the insecurities are gone and I want everyone to read my writing because I have gained so much confidence in it. As my confidence in my writing has grown, there is still plenty of room for improvement. Some aspects that I feel like I might be struggling in is writing reports. For our class, I felt like I repeated the same words over and over again in my report. I feel like I am struggling in this part of my writing because of the lack of rules put into place for this project. This could be due to the strict rules and rubrics that have been put into place when you first start school, and this project is the first one I have ever experience with the leniency of being able to take your report anywhere you want it to. As I am writing this reflection, I am reflecting on how I am viewing everything as a whole for our project. I believe that getting the reassurance that I am correctly doing my assignments is the only thing I need.
