Yancey defines reflection as “the process by which we know that we have accomplished and by which we articulate accomplishment and the products of those processes.” Taczak defines reflection as “a mode of inquiry: a deliberate way of systematically recalling writing experiences to reframe the current writing situation.” Yancey builds on Sharon Pianko’s article Reflection: A Critical Component of the Composing Process by stating what Pianko has concluded and comparing and contrasting her views on reflection. She also builds off of Russian psychologist Vygotsky by using that same strategy. Another scholar she builds off of is Robert Brookfield. Yancey quotes Brookfield and then states her belief on reflection. According to Taczak, reflection enables writers to “relocate the knowledge and practices acquired from one writing site to another.” Where as Yancey see that reflection enables writers to go “beyond the text to include a sense of the ongoing conversations that texts enter into.” We can connect reflection to the key term discourse community because each discourse community must reflect on not only their decisions, but also everything they’re involved with. We can connect reflection to audience because we need to reflect on every possibility to find the correct audience of the text. We can connect reflection to genre because we need to reflect by reviewing and revising everything in order to locate to correct genre. We can connect reflection to purpose because reflection ”identifies the context of a problem,” and in order for a text to have a purpose, most of the time it solves a problem.
The following are pictures I took back at home in Boca Raton. Not only is the sun reflecting off of the ocean, but also my friends (Mia, Andy, Luke, and Finn) are carefully analyzing their moves and reflecting on their past bad moves ignorer to not make the same mistakes.
