First, look at your data. Read your log entries, looking for patterns, connections, holes or missed opportunities.
Write about a two page summary, using the guiding questions below as a springboard.

Vagueness and grade-grubbing will make me feel like we’re all wasting our time here.
You know what else might really help? If you tied your learning to the mindmap I gave you at the beginning of the unit.
Formatting and narrative design is largely up to you; my only request is that this summary has at least two separate sections: one for contribution and one for learning.

Some guiding questions:
What have you learned in this last unit? Did you make any breakthroughs? What was your best moment?
Did you run up against any brick walls? What did you do about it?
What kind of progress have you made toward the goals you outlined in your writing autobiography? What kind of progress have you made toward the goals you outlined in your last C&L summary?
A seminar is an ongoing project, built and powered by students. Describe your contributions to our ongoing project.
What will you do differently in the future? In terms of contribution and learning, what are your goals for the next unit?

Post your C&L summary to the end of your running record on GoogleDocs (all in the same document as your writing autobiography and guided reflection letter; don’t create a new doc) by the end of the day on Friday.
