Instructor's Notes
To add a submission dropbox for students' reflection prompts, go to "Add to this Unit" > "Create new . . ." > "Dropbox."
After completing one of the writing assignments presented in this chapter or supplied by your instructor, turn back to the After Writing questions in Chapter 3 and respond to as many of them as you can. While addressing these questions, it might be helpful to revisit your responses to any of the reflective Learning by Doing activities that you completed in Chapter 9.
Next, reflect in writing about how you might apply the insights that you drew from this assignment to an argument assignment for another course or to a writing situation outside of college. If no specific assignments or situations come to mind, imagine that
in a sociology course, you are asked to argue (based on evidence you’ve gathered) that birth order does, or does not, influence siblings’ social or political views.
in a work setting, you want to make the case that you have the strongest qualifications for an open position. (You will have to imagine a position that would appeal to you, and you may have to invent some of your qualifications.)
