Consider the following questions.  Your instructor may ask you to freewrite about one of these questions in your learning journal.

  • When you are assigned an essay, what are the first steps that you take?
  • In your past experiences with essay writing, what parts of the process did you find most challenging?  Why do you think that was?
  • Think of an essay that you have written in the past.  Did the feedback from that essay surprise you?  How has it changed your writing process?
  • What goals do you have for further improvement of your essay-writing skills?
