SBS220 Business Writing FINAL REFLECTION UPLOAD Due: Monday, April 27th by start of class This Final Reflection email is an important part of your term grade. Follow all the guidelines and components for business communications that you have learned throughout this semester. You’ve learned so much – now show your “stuff”!! FINAL REFLECTION While this assignment is titled a “reflection”, it should not be written in academic essay format; instead, it is a summary of the term, and you should write it as “response to a request” in email format. I will look for your conscientious effort with organizing (outline), planning, self-editing, attention to presentation detail (including - but not limited to - grammar and punctuation), and above all, your ideas. These are all the same as you have been doing the entire semester. The email should be written from you to me. As usual, please upload it to Blackboard as a WORD document. Do not actually email it to me. You need submit/upload to BB ONLY your final email to me (a little less to prepare though I hope outlining and other prep will still help you to organize your thoughts). Please include the following information: • What you expected from the class when you had registered • Your own (personal) difficulties of the writing curriculum • How you met those difficulties/or were challenged by those difficulties, and why • Most important writing strategy(ies) you learned this term, and why • At least one specific recommendation on how the class can be improved next term based on the info above • One helpful suggestion for an incoming student for next term • What one topic/skill introduced to you in this course that you wish you could have spent more time on, and why • Other thoughts about the semester For each of the above, you should give specific evidence/examples. Don’t make general and vague statements for which you offer no support. Please organize the presentation of this information using professional business writing style. Follow the 3 Step Process Below: Part 1: Plan • Determine whether you will take a direct or indirect approach to your message. • Brainstorm your business writing experience through this semester, and note what areas you should concentrate on. • Create your outline for a complete and detail-oriented message. • Incorporate appropriately all the components of a routine response to a request. SBS220 Business Writing Part 2: Write • Write the email. MAX word count = 350. (I will stop reading). • Don’t forget to put your request in the format of an email (include subject line, to/from, email signature and contact info, introduction, body with all support info, concluding statement with a statement of goodwill and call to action, etc.). • Ensure you are incorporating the format, structure, and components of a routine business message. • Create your email so that it has high skim value and easy navigational design. Part 3: Revise • Proofread your first draft for grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Use Grammarly Premium. • Edit again for clarity and conciseness. • Ensure you are clearly communicating the information required. Deliverables: Submit your final draft only of the email to Blackboard/SafeAssign before start of class time on April 27th. _____________________________________________________________________________ Your assignment will be graded on the following: 1) Planning 3) Grammar and business style/conciseness 2) Organization 4) Content: thoughtful ideas & reflection
