Review:
(1) Reflective study: what have you learned in your subject area, and what do you need to learn in the future; and
(2) Reflection is an important skill to develop when you are a learner at school and to reflect on what is shaping your future;
- how your mind has changed since you entered university
- the challenges you have had

To write a reflective essay you need to consider these experiences and plan and prepare for the future. Therefore your final essay will be to follow the following format:
- Pre-Introduction the reasons why you came to Gandai, why you selected this course, explain the course, and state the current direction (path) you are on
- Introduction: what have you studied, what are you currently studying now, and what do you hope to study in the future, and whether or not this course provides the right direction for your future
- Body Paragraph 1: whats your plan to study for you to graduate, and why.
- Body Paragraph 2: whats your plan after graduation, and include more than one possibility
- Reflect on your school life at university and give advice to someone entering university for the first time. Support your reasons, and indicate how you have changed your mind, the challenges that you have had, and what you have leaned by them.

HW for Early Learners
3. Opinion 1
Firstly I would like to make a statement of my opinion concerning whether or or not early learner’s need home work. The first statement goes against primary students requiring to do home work on a daily basis. [see Appenix A] Based on Article A and Article B I believe that home work should carefully be monitored and as well not given to students during holidays. I support students spending time with their family during official holiday seasons.

A1.
At the time of my school life in primary school we were not given home work on a regular basis. Instead we had revision worksheets that we could decide to do when ever we wanted to.
