2025-26 Academic year
You are required to create 8 weekly blog posts of about 250 words length for the 80% of the grade. These are weekly online reflections (blog posts) about your lived experience within the class meetings and the educational material you engaged with (so you have to be physically present in those meetings to make a reflection). On every week, what you felt, what you understand, what you learn, what you like to ask. Need to be in a personal authentic voice, however need to be a narrative that can be shared online. It’s required to be authentic, you in your shoes, nevertheless is not your intimate thoughts meant to be written in a personal diary. Every time you post, you have to make two short feedback comments on the other participants’ posts.
Please post your reflections (#emergence in the title) by the following Monday. As this is about personal reflective practice, and the meaning is to reflect on your personal experience, you can write a post only for the meetings you were physically present.
A final reflection “what I understand, learned, and realize, and what I do not understand yet, and how can I utilize this in my life or professional practice”, regarding the overall course content and process, or focusing on any part. This is required to be about 1500 words (20%). The Final reflection also has to be uploaded to your personal blogs with the #emergence, after January 12 2026 and before January 31 2026.
Please do not use AI to write your reflections. I do not want generic text. Your contribution should be related to your in class and personal lived experience. All your writings should be contextualized, that is situated in your lived experience, and you should write in the first person. In all your writings, you should be authentic and speaking about what you understand yourself in relation to the concepts you are going to discuss and reflect on, from your own shoes, in relation to yourself. If you are using generative AI at any point, you should indicate it. It is more than welcome to use AI as a learning tool, and I hope to work on this as part of this class. It is not welcome to use AI to avoid writing reflections yourself so as to outsource your own ability to think and feel.
Happy blogging time!
