Rhetorical Situation:
For this assignment, your rhetorical situation is the Assessment in Writing Scholarship Conference. Its committee is collecting data about college writing seminars and how students deal with the transitions they undergo as they seek to comprehend, respond to, and use academic texts in writing. Write your reflection with an awareness of how your texts (your body of work), and the process you undertook to complete them, will affect the research.
Make sure that the writing has a clear purpose and that you select a main point or claim regarding your evolution as a writer. Because the writing engages you as the subject, a narrative tone is acceptable; however, in order to maintain an academic tone, your experience should serve as evidence for a claim that is clearly related to writing.
