It encompasses all the goals we have for this program.

The student is clearly moved by the activity and makes personal connections. The next step is to add a specific example and explain its significance and a reaction. There is one quote, but the explanation is very general. It would be interesting to use a few of these samples to establish some criteria with the students. For example, the first sentence here is a good attention grabber.

This student did a good job of explaining the situation but didn’t give much of a reaction. The writing is also good. I wonder if more explicit expectations would improve performance. Even good work can be improved!
