Instructions for the Reflection Assignments: Reflections are really your thoughts while you are reading the material.  These reflections can be expansions on what you read, your feelings about the material, and/or if what you read relates to other things that you know or have seen before.  Reflections are written in bullet points and show processing of how the content of the readings relate to theory and practice. Four substantial bullet points for each chapter earns full points. Each bullet point should include both information from the chapter and a personal experience related to the concept you discuss. You can talk about your own personal experiences, experiences of friends or family members that have been shared with you, something you saw on a TV show, Netflix show, YouTube video, something you read in a story, or something you learned from another class in each bullet point. It’s a good idea to include a one or two extra substantial bullet points because we might disagree on what a substantial bullet point is. The number 1 mistake students make is not elaborating enough on their thought processes. Don’t be afraid to elaborate on each point.  The more detail, the better! As long as you have enough substantial bullet points, it’s okay to include lighter bullet points. The easiest way to create good reflection is to read the chapter slowly and for comprehension. The thoughts that come to you are your bullet points
