Project 1: Literacy Reflection<\/strong><\/p>\n

Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n

Writing for an audience of your 1100 classmates you will narrate and reflect on a significant event in your life involving literacy, by which is meant speaking, reading, and\/or writing, broadly defined to include visual texts such as film and photographs. Your purpose in telling your classmates about this event will be to convey and explain the significance of the event and to suggest what your reader might learn from the experience. As Lester Faigley explains in our textbook, \u201cA successful reflection challenges readers to find out something about themselves.\u201d We will look at several sample reflections in class to give you a better idea of the kinds of events you might describe and the strategies you might use to explain their significance to your readers. You must carefully describe event(s) for your audience, keeping in mind that most of your classmates are not familiar with your individual background.<\/p>\n
