This should be about 300-500 words.  Content is 70 percent, and grammar is 30 percent. Please understand that this is an essay. You should have paragraphs. Do NOT number the paragraphs. This is a guide for writing the essay – it is not intended for you to write numbers and just answer each number – make it flow! I know it is difficult to indent in this application, so just skip a line between paragraphs.   Socratic Seminar ReflectionParagraph one:  Reflect on your participation in the seminar (both positive and/or negative). Write a paragraph of at least three sentences that explains/describes your participation in the seminar. Be specific. Don’t just say, “I came prepared.” Say things like, “I came prepared by reading the articles that were included in the seminar, and I did some research on …” What grade do you deserve and why? Paragraph 2:  Next, you will write a paragraph of at least three sentences about the seminar as a whole. How would you rate this seminar? You can rate both the inner and outer circles (if applicable). How was student behavior? Paragraph 3: This will be a summary of the key ideas discussed during the seminar. What seemed to be talked about the most? Was there anything you would have liked to talk about that did not get mentioned? Do you have any suggestions for making this part of the seminar better?  Paragraph 4: (the most important paragraph to me) — This will be your reaction to what one (or two) people said that you thought was thought-provoking. Identify what someone said; write down his/her comment (paraphrase is fine), and react to his/her statement. You can agree or disagree, but state why.  You can also write about anything in the seminar that influenced your thinking about the topic or the text. It should be different information than what is in paragraph 3. These were the real “aha” moments for you… Paragraph 5: Finally, in the conclusion, identify a personal goal for the next seminar. What do you want to do better or differently? Did you enjoy the seminar? Did you feel that you learned more or less in a seminar than in a lecture?
