Overview
Reflection 1 Topic Name is - “Write an individual reflection paper inspired by the in-class group activity, that is, the merit increase decision simulation.”
Your paper should focus on your individual reflection on the exercise.
Your paper should focus on your individual reflection on the exercise. You should not focus on describing of what happened or providing a recap of your group’s decision process.(VERY VERY IMPORTANT)
There is no need of intext citation as it is the reading done in class.
but most important.(Suggestion given by mam very very very improtant. only one of the topics you cover could be interesting, but they require more support. Reducing the number of claims you make while expanding them would help make your reflection more cohesive. In particular, I would recommend focusing on one argument per paragraph. Doing so would give you more opportunity to expand on your thoughts in a cohesive manner.)
(USE I AND Your task is not to summarize the week’s readings, but rather to critically and creatively engage with, and make sense of, the ideas and topics raised for the week.)
You are expected to submit 1 reflection paper ON THE in calss group DISUCSSION ACTIVITY possible topics Assignemnt over the course of the semester. The length is 600 words. Reflection papers are due on saturday by 11:59pm, beginning in Week 4 (see the class schedule) and are written on the previous week’s topic. For example, the paper due on Sep 26th should be written on “in-class group activity, that is, the merit increase decision simulation.”.What to do: Write an individual reflection paper inspired by the in-class group activity, that is, the merit increase decision simulation.
Guidelines for reflection papers • The main aim of the reflection papers is to provide you with a written means of engaging with the readings and in class group activity discussions.
Reflection papers are written in response to readings and class in-class group activity, that is, the merit increase decision simulation discussions from the previous week and are due the Sunday after the preceding Tues/Thurs classes.
Your paper should focus on your individual reflection on the exercise. You should not focus on describing of what happened or providing a recap of your group’s decision process.
Do not summarize out •Your task is not to summarize the week’s readings, but rather to critically and creatively engage with, and make sense of, the ideas and topics raised for the week.
Here are some ideas that can help you focus your paper:
Engage with (respond to relate to, discuss, debate, compare, refute etc.) the authors’ ideas or arguments.
Response to actual arguments
USE - ‘I’
A conversational tone is generally preferred written in the first-person (using I).
Informal way of writing
Provide reflection deeply
Try to make sense and how do you think
(If you write claims provide reasoning behind them)
Thesis line IS VERY IMPORTANT IMPORTANT
Your paper should focus on your individual reflection on the exercise. You should not focus on describing of what happened or providing a recap of your group’s decision process.(VERY VERY IMPORTANT)
Reflect on your learning: How it emphasizes your personal perspective and how the exercise connects to concepts and theories in Industrial and organizational psychology. You may explicitly draw on lecture content and required readings on employee performance, but you are also encouraged to make connections to other relevant areas, such as theories of decision-making, motivation, and related topics from reading.
Thesis line IS VERY IMPORTANT IMPORTANT
It has to be followed in every paper, and in fact, it may be better to choose all of these as a focus for your paper for the week. • The reflection papers are meant to be part of your ongoing reflection on new and sometimes complex ideas, and you can expect that your ideas about things will change as the course progresses. This means that your papers can be exploratory. • The GRADING will look for evidence that you have read and thought about the course material when grading your papers, so read the papers deeply and perhaps even more than once, take notes, highlight passages that are interesting or intriguing, write out questions or connections in the margins, and use these to help you identify potential topics to explore in your reflection papers. Format for submissions:
APA7 STYLE OW PURDE.)WHOLE DOCX SHOULD BE 1.5 SPACED). • APA 7 Referencing is only necessary if you want to cite materials other than those on your reading list.
Font –Arial- 12 size.
APA7 REFERNCE STYLE WHOLE DOCX SHOULD BE DOUBLE SPACED. • Paper adheres to the length guidelines - Length is 600 words exactly (1.5 spaced pages). • Quality is more important than quantity
A personal reflection will require you to think deeply about your own experiences. You will need to think about the ways in which your experiences have shaped you or your understanding of a particular issue. A personal reflection is about your perceptions rather than about extensive research that you have conducted.
A conversational tone is generally prefered written in the first-person (using I).
Three-stage model of reflective writing (have to used while writing )
Stage 1: What?
Stage 1 starts the reflection process through descriptive questions (see below) that you can answer in your reflective journals. You should normally complete this stage as you plan and prepare for an experience (e.g., teaching practicum, community service placement, other learning opportunity). This is the “before” stage.
What do I expect to get out of this experience (goals, outcomes, purpose, ideas)?
What were my initial observations (e.g., of the placement location, interactions between people, my reactions)?
What are the goals of agency, group, organization?
What do I already know about the specific context?
What did I think before?
What roles am I taking on?
What happened to me today
Stage 2: So what?
Stage 2 requires you to share meaningful experiences and provide an observation or analysis of these experiences. In this stage, you write about the day’s actions and what significance or consequences are attached to these actions. You are challenged to interpret the meaning of your experiences. You can answer the following questions in your reflective writing piece. This is the “during” stage.
What did this experience mean to me?
What did I do that was effective? Why was it effective?
What am I learning about others and myself?
What did I do that seems to be ineffective? How could I have done it differently?
What values, opinions, and/or decisions have been made through this experience?
Stage 3: Now What?
In stage 3, you will apply the lessons you have learned during one (or more) placements (or situations) to other situations and contexts. You will explore new understandings about yourself and community issues. Questions to guide you are listed below. This is the “after” stage.
How will that change my action perspective going forward?
Is it important for me to stay involved in the community?
What will the final results of my efforts be?
How will that change my action perspective going forward?
How can I use what I learned in my future placements or career?
What changes would I make in this experience if it were repeated?
How does this experience exemplify or contradict module materials?
It should contain no spelling errors and typos
For example, start line should; start a bit like this, line can be like this, Starting line- this week our professor thought,
READINGS which have to be used
The resources and link which has to be used is only 2(two) pdf which I have provided in the form of pdf to be analyzed by word to word and used properly.
NO OTHER SOURCE HAS TO BE USED ONLY these readings has to be used.
No outsource has to be used.
Reading are as follows:
READING NO-1 INCLASS Decision Simulation Activity(very very very veruy very important

DOCX –4 IS THE SAMPLE OF HOW TO WRITE THE REFLECTION WHICH IS ALSO VERY IMPORTANT
DOCX 5 IS GRADING RUBRIC PHOTO(PDF DOCX).
And guidelines and you have to answer to this I am proving the grading rubrics everything write in own words do not use no AI AND CHATGPT AS MAM HAS THE SOFTAWARE TO DETECT.EACH AND EVERY LINE and each and every word.
I Have also attached the grading rubric photo which is in form of image grading rubric is very much important you have to follow each and every instruction very carefully.
only these sources which I have provided you have to use.
I have also attached the grading rubric photo each and every instruction has to be followed very carefully.
Suggestion given by mam intext citation should match with reference"(Make sure that you have the right authors in your citation and do not include any outsource out of course material).First you have to use this reading 1 reading and this Reading-1 is very very very important and has to be used studied deeply and understand deeply and then write original reflection paper5.
Suggestion given by mam very very very improtant. Any one of the topics you cover could be interesting, but they require more support. Reducing the number of claims you make while expanding them would help make your reflection more cohesive. In particular, I would recommend focusing on one argument per paragraph. Doing so would give you more opportunity to expand on your thoughts in a cohesive manner.

It should also demonstrates critical thinking, not just description of the activity. It integrates relevant course concepts (lecture, required) | The paper is very well structured and organized, with logical flow and connections between ideas. The paper and topics are introduced, and conclusions are drawn. | It is exceptionally clearly written, with few grammatical errors, and sufficient context is given for topics or statements. |

INSTRUCTOR'S SUGGESTION:
o"Reducing the number of claims you make while expanding them would help make your reflection more cohesive."
o"Focus on one argument per paragraph."
CURRENT ISSUES IN YOUR REFLECTION:
Too many claims in one paragraph:
Lack of expansion:
Although you raise critical points, you don’t provide enough evidence or explanation for each one.. Expanding on these terms with clear examples would strengthen your argument. an i will recommend HOW TOFIX IT- One argument per paragraph: Paragraph 1: Paragraph 2: Expand each argument: proper intro thesis statement, conclusion
