Linguistic Introspection
This piece will take the form of a 5-6 page critical reflection (double spaced, Times New Roman 12 point font) about your languaging experiences and how those have interacted with and/or against your culture, identity, and learning.
In short, the goal is to describe and examine the role of language and culture in your life using specific examples of oral and written communication.
To get started, you might consider the following: your language development and education, what you’ve been told and have come to believe about various languages and dialects, what languages, dialects, registers, and styles you control, how others respond to your language use, your language habits and pet peeves, etc.
