Reflecting on Reflection
What I believe I might be gaining from reflecting on a completed
piece of writing is to get the job done in a better way. My rhetorical
decisions, after reflection, certainly will become more accurate because with reflective writing the communication becomes more precise, expressing better the message. I will reflect on the vocabulary, the stream
of words in a sentence and the general text as a whole piece. I will do this
reflection after the first draft, and after the subsequente drafts until I get the
text as good as I think it should be. Because
I am a novice in this kind of writing, all of the WPA Outcomes on reflective
writing seem to be important and necessary.

Writer's Journal #3 - Reflecting on Reflection
OVERVIEW Reflection is an important part of learning how to write not only in the academic context but in any field that requires carefully considered communication. Reflection helps us to understand why we might have made decisions in our writing and what those decisions might reveal about our ways of thinking about, and initiallyapproaching, writing. We can then use this insight to gain greater control over the writing that we produce.
DIRECTIONS In this Writer’s Journal, you will have the opportunity to think about your own reflective processes and practices. To help you in this reflection, please respond to the following questions: What do you think might be gained from reflecting on a completed piece of writing? What might reflection help you understand about your rhetorical decisions or your writing process? In what ways do you think reflective writing differs from other types of writing? What are some ways that you might reflect on the writing you do for this course? Where and how would you do this reflection? Which of the WPA Outcomes does reflective writing seem to relate most directly to and how? Be sure to be as detailed and thorough as possible, and use examples to help explain your response. Be sure to read over your response to be sure it says what you want it to say.
