I’m working on a English exercise and need support.

A reflection paper allows you to think about how your personal experiences and

observations shape your understanding and acceptance of new ideas or

concepts. It demonstrates your understanding of a topic to your instructor. In a

reflection paper, your writing should have a personal approach and use real

examples from your own experience. You can write in the first person and use the

personal pronoun “I”, but it should not use casual language. It is still an academic

assignment.

Length: 500 – 750 words:

Answer the essay question:

What is academic writing and how does it differ from personal writing? Has your

idea of academic writing changed since doing the Academic Integrity module or

since entering UPP?

Use concrete examples from your own successes and failures as an academic

writer and examples from the Academic Integrity module, especially the

attachments on personal and academic writing.

It should also include citations from any sources you used as support.
