Step 1: Capture your topic. Take a moment to think about what you identify as one of the most meaningful, relevant lesson presented in the course readings or supporting materials, for Weeks 3 and 4. Select a 1-2 sentence direct quotation from the applicable learning resources that references, in a germane way, the issue, idea or concept key to that lesson. This quote will become the prompt for your Critical Reflection paper. That is, it will be a focal point of your paper, representing what you identify as an important takeaway that you hope others in class will consider as a deeply important truth or lesson of this class. To support deep reflections on the topic, and the writing of the paper, the quotation should be relevant to a topic you can tie directly to your own (or others’) experiences, observations, and critical reasoning. It should also be something you are willing to think critically about and are willing to discuss through the writing of this paper.
Step 2: Write your reflection essay. Once you have identified the quotation prompt that will anchor your reflection, place it at the top of your paper, below the title. Follow the quote by a line space. On the next line begin the body of your paper. In 300 to 400 words (organized in meaningful, well organized paragraphs) defend your belief that there is an important truth or lesson, relevant to this course, to be gleaned from this quotation. Essentially, your job is to clarify what the lesson to be learned is and to then strongly (and thoughtfully) defend why you think the lesson is vital.
To help you think about your topic and to write a well-organized essay, consider (and answer) these questions:
What truth or lesson is being communicated by this quote?
Why is this truth or lesson so important?
How do your, or other’s, experiences and observations relate to and support this truth or lesson?
In what ways does this lesson make logical sense to you?
In what ways does this lesson make emotional sense to you?
How might this lesson be relevant to your, or others’, life and career?
Why do some fail to live as if this truth or lesson were important?
Why might some suggest this truth or lesson is not important?
How would you defend the truth of this lesson from those who disagree and believe the lesson is not important?
What can we do (at an individual, community, or society) to make this truth or lesson better recognized or practiced?
In the writing of your essay, present your answer to these questions in a sequence of well-developed paragraphs (not bullet points).
You are encouraged to be creative in your reflections. Your reflections may include, when pertinent, links to media, pictures, or other supporting resources.
Step 3: Write a Discussion Question that Would Prompt Further Dialog on the Topic. End your reflection essay with a line space and then post a single, relevant, provocative, open-ended question that you believe would prompt further debate and reflection by readers on the topic addressed in your essay.
Step 4: Give Your Reflection a Title. Be sure to give your paper a relevant, catchy but professional title. The title should be something creative that sparks other learners to want to read your reflection. Your title should be like a creative, but good headline. The title should be placed at the top of Page 1 of the document.
Longfellow’s Unique American Hero in Evangeline
A one of a kind American saint unique in long individual in Evangeline: The clarification of Adam’s long individual in the United States is something else. Through the portrayal of the story sonnet Evangelin, the idea of American Adam can be seen in different manners. R. W. B. Lewis investigated the journey for American Renaissance journalists and made a one of a kind American writing in the 1955 content “American Adam in the Nineteenth Century: Innocence, Tragedy and Tradition”.
In 1847, the American writer Henry Wadsworth Long Fellow distributed a long story sonnet about the ejection of the Acadians called Evangeline, delineating an imaginary individual Ivagne. Phosphorus’ quandary. This sonnet got in vogue and got acclaimed. Evangeline oak is a vacation destination in Louisiana. The melody “Acadian Driftwood” recorded by The Band in 1975 speaks to the development and Acadian development. Antonine Maillet composed a novel called Pélagie-la-Charrette because of huge wreck. It was granted to Prix Goncourt in 1979. Fantastic PréPark is Canadian National Historic Site of Grand-Pére, Nova Scotia State and is protected as a landmark to the outcast. It incorporates the commemoration church and the sculpture of Evangeline, the subject of long individual verse. In 2018, Canadian history specialist and writer A.J.B. Johnston distributed YA’s epic called The Hat, propelled by the occasion in the Grand Prix of 1755.
On the off chance that the understudies meet a long individual before attending a university, at that point the writer they know isn’t in this assortment: Evangeline, “Ha Faasha’s melody”, “Million’s romance”. This long individual’s assortment is our “revisionist” long individual in the second 50% of the twentieth century and nearly perceives renowned journalists who may have thought of them, aside from sonnets like “Hymns of life” can not. On the off chance that verse understudies don’t really peruse Long Fellows, he just tuned in to him (in an ordinary case) and they need to know why he is so celebrated.
These are a ton of extraordinary writers. Long Fellow is one of only a handful barely any writers who joined new works. He made a few best sonnets ever. Sonnets of the Evangeline, Haihuasha tunes, and long individual stories, for example, Miles Stendish’s tribute give a sentimental perspective on the early American history and vote based goals. Evangelin is perhaps the longest sonnet at any point composed by an essayist. It is mainstream through the differentiation everything being equal. It is perused, cherished and thought in an unassuming bungalow (Wagonknecht P.85). Evangelin is difficult to misrepresent his style at home and abroad, which is the principal long verse that rose above his own time in American writing (Wagonknecht P.85)
