Reflection: Tell your story

This reflection will be a little different than the one for your poster project; you will be creating your own post again, so DO NOT respond to this post.

Guidelines:
Tell your “story” of your research findings and experiences. In other words I want you to actually tell the story of your process as if it was a story and not simply a project you were completing for class. Your audience is mainstream people—people who have no idea what you are talking about or why you are talking about it, so you will need to make your story “user-friendly.” This reflection is not fiction, so don’t treat it that way.

Some things to remember about this reflection: this reflection should read like a story, and stories have a point; they aim for an emotional response (the emotion is up to you); and they are engaging.

Think about what you would want people to know about your research, the process of it, the act of doing it, composing the product. That’s what you want to get across in this reflection.

There is no maximum word limit, but this reflection should be over 500 words because you want to make sure you get your point across. You should also include images, videos, play with fonts (some of you did not do this for your on-line class day...) and font colors, etc. I want you to start thinking about why are you using the images/videos/colors/fonts you are using--it should make sense. These things are important to the overall point of your story, but also to the rhetoric behind your story.

Last make sure to be using key terms and key concepts that you have been learning, so you need to makes connections and think critically about the choices you made in your research process.

I look forward to reading your "story."
