Submit by Day 7 a 2- to 3-page rough draft of your Reflection Assignment.

Assignment Instructions: As mentioned above, you are working through a writing process where you will compose the first draft of the Reflection Assignment paper. This week you will begin with actually writing and submitting a rough draft. During Week 6, you’ll be guided through a revisions and proofreading process that will help you further develop and improve your rough draft by adding more thoughts, incorporating any feedback received, and ensuring you’ve followed Academic Writing Expectations. Your final draft will be due at the end of Week 6. The required elements for both weeks are the same, but the expectations are slightly different. The grading rubrics for Weeks 4 and 6 demonstrate this. For example, this week’s rough draft represents a first attempt at putting your thoughts down on paper and only covers four weeks. By Week 6, your final paper should be longer, include obvious improvements to the rough draft, and include aspects from the entire six weeks. Your paper should include four sections. Be sure to review all four sections before starting. Remember to include an introductory and a concluding paragraph, and to support your ideas with specific examples and resources whenever possible. Include the following parts: Part 1: Today I am… The first and longest section of your essay should describe who you are today as a result of this first-term course and starting your educational journey. Specifically consider your personal plan for success at Walden. Answer these questions to develop this section: Who are you as a Walden student? What tools has Walden provided? How do the tools and available support play into achieving your goals? What did you learn about yourself through the assessments? How is that going to feed into your plan for success? What has this first course done for you? What might this course do for you moving forward? Think about some of the course themes and big ideas we discussed and connect them to the way you will approach learning and future classes. Make sure to get specific and point to course examples to support your ideas. Part 2: I promise to… In the second section, make a promise to yourself and the classmates who might need your support during the program. Think about your reasons for being here and why you are promising to work towards success. Consider the following: Here is why I am not going to walk away Here’s how I will help myself Here’s how Walden will help me get there Here’s how I be part of positive change Part 3: How I will become part of the Walden Community In the third section, explain how you might identify a mentor (colleague with different professional skills, someone in your profession, or a Walden Faculty Member) to support your educational efforts. Share how a mentor would have a positive impact on your education and the role you would like him/her to take. How you might become a mentor to others in the program? Part 4: Visual Representation [This step will be due by Week 6] After you have completed your Reflection, find or create a visual artifact that shows your aspiration and hang it above your desk. Think of something that will motivate you and keep you engaged and focused as you complete each Discussion and Assignment as you move through your coursework toward graduation. Be sure to include a picture or copy of this visual representation with your reflection paper by copying and pasting it into your paper or attaching it as a separate file. Submit by Day 7 a 2- to 3-page rough draft of your Reflection Assignment using the guidelines above. Your rough draft should demonstrate use of the Academic Writing Expectations, such as proper grammar and sentence structure, and address the parts described above. It should also include an introduction and conclusion. Make sure to support your ideas with specific evidence and class examples. If you used the worksheet from the Week 4 Learning Resources, you may submit the completed worksheet as your rough draft.
