Guidelines for reflection papers
The main aim of the reflection papers is to provide you with a written means of engaging with the readings and class discussions. Reflection papers are written in response to readings and class discussions that have already taken place, and are due the Monday after the preceding Wednesday class.
Your papers should show an attempt to understand the material accurately, but should not merely be a summary of course material – they should be a response.
There is no strict rule for how to write your papers, as long as they reflect an attempt to critically and creatively engage with, and make sense of, the ideas and topics raised for the week.
For example, you can write about links between history, theoretical ideas and personal life experiences; you can reflect on connections between course content and ideas in other courses you are taking, or in other disciplines; or you can engage with course material on its own terms, using theory and philosophical concepts from the readings and other parts of the course.
