Guidelines


Below are several questions to consider as you write your reflection paper. 


This assignment should be written as a comprehensive essay (with paragraphs) rather than a series of short answers addressing each question. Use the questions as a guide to help you critically reflect on the course and what you have learned. 



What have you learned about persuasion and persuasive communication? 


What did you learn about writing and/or public speaking? 


How can you apply what you have learned to academic, personal, and/or professional 


contexts? (For this one, I provide another file to give you some options to write about. You can choose by yourself.)


What have you learned about social problems and nonprofit organizations in our regions? 


Which Persuasive Speech had the greatest impact on you? Why? (You may write about this one: https://www.ted.com/talks/nancy_duarte_the_secret_structure_of_great_talks?language=en)


If you could begin again, would you (as a student) approach this course differently? Why or 


why not? 


What have you discovered about yourself? 


In what way(s) did this class challenge you?
