REFLECTIVE WRITING AT EVERGREEN TIMELINE Admissions Essay: Before you were Admitted
Orientation Essay: Due your First Week at Evergreen
SelfEvaluations: Every Quarter
Evaluations of Faculty: Every Quarter
Before you even arrived at Evergreen, you reflected on yourself as a learner in your Admissions Essay. (It was optional for most.)
At the start of your first quarter, you may have reflected on the very beginning of your academic journey in your Orientation Essay. (This is recommended, but not required.)
At the end of each quarter, you will have written a reflection on your own performance in the class, on the work you completed, and on your own participation in the course or program. When you post them to my.evergreen.edu, you have options to “Turn In” the SelfEvaluation to your faculty or to “Submit” it to your transcript (which can’t be undone). If you do not submit now, you will have the option to submit it later. Self-Evaluations are not required to be a part of your transcript (Required to ‘Turn In.’)
Evaluations of faculty are written to communicate to your faculty member and to the deans about the faculty’s performance as an educator. They are turned in via my.evergreen.edu and are not a part of your transcript. (Recommended.)
