This assignment will provide you with practice in reflexivity—a term taken from qualitative research. It involves identifying one’s position and voice when answering “What do I know?” and “How do I know it?” This process requires honest descriptions and appraisals of a person’s values and perspectives in an ongoing experience with his or her ideas and/or actions. This process allows the writer to use rich descriptions, meaningful sequencing, selected quotes, and elaborations on keen insight being experienced. The individual, being reflective, writes in first person, active voice. Description and interpretation are expected to happen. At the same time, a person’s recognition of his or her bias or particular stance to a set of ideas must be included. Quality, rather than quantity, of work is expected.
