Journal 5

Taczak defines reflection as “a mode of inquiry: a deliberate way of systematically recalling writing experiences to reframe the current writing situation. Yancey describes reflection by saying how it’s what “stimulates the growth of consciousness in students about the numerous mental and linguistic strategies they command and about the many lexical, syntactical, and organizational choices they make.” Yancey builds on others scholarship to define reflection by studying a large group of students reflections to further learn about them. Reflection enables writers to articulate what we have learned for ourselves. Reflection can be connected to genre because your reflection can change depending on what genre you right in. It’s connected to audience through who your audience is; your reflection may change based on who you were writing to. It can be associated with purpose because you may reflect on how you achieved or didn’t achieve your purpose. It can also be connected to discourse community by your style and diction of the reflection.


Im hoping that the reader will be able to understand the different parts of a reflection and see that there are many parts that go into one.
