Here is the description of the formal assignment.

In a 4 page typed, double-spaced paper describe your reflective persona, using examples from your experience. Develop a rich description of your persona by identifying your responses to various types of deliberative contexts. In the second part of the paper, identify some ideals of reflection (consider those in the textbook) and some aspects of your persona that you would like to affirm, develop, or change. You may find it helpful to identify role models or examples from your experience of reflective virtues you find worthy of pursuit.

Rubric: Successful papers accomplish the two main goals of the assignment (description and evaluation) equally well, using college-level prose. Descriptive detail, a sense of the writer's identity, and evidence of self-reflection are key evaluative criteria for this assignment.
