TEAM PROJECT REFLECTION PAPER (15% of project grade)
Each individual team member will turn in a personal reflection paper (one per person NOT one per team), 2-3 pages in length, discussing what they learned about themselves while working on their team project. The reflection paper should incorporate the following components:
1)What you learned about yourself
2)Application of two class theories, concepts or models to what you learned (make sure to explain in your own words, cite in proper APA format (see Purdue online writing lab for help), and apply the theory appropriately).
3)What you would do differently (if anything) if you had the chance to do it again and why
The format of the paper should be:
1)Double-spaced
2)12 point, Times Roman font
3)1-inch margins all the way around
4)APA style reference page of sources cited
The grading rubric is as follows:
Did you properly explain the theories, concepts or models in your own words? (DO NOT QUOTE THE SOURCE. If you quote the source, you will lose points) (4 points)
