You are given one opportunity to attend a webinar this semester as part of your reflective essay requirement. Choose what webinar to attend and write something about it.
Follow instructions below to avoid penalties/deductions.
Essays should have a word count that ranges from 900-1,200 words
Discuss what the talk is all about (provide a brief summary) and your engagement with the topic (how it resonates with you personally, your research, interests, etc.)
Relate the topic to a broader discussion of geography; use at least one topic in geography we discussed in class.
In creating the essay, do the following;
Provide an introduction, followed by a road map
A road map is not an actual map but 1-2 sentence/s that informs the reader
what your essay is all about. A road map is usually found at the end of your first paragraph.
It is usually written this way (don’t copy word for word – make your own): “This essay discusses Filipino migrant workers in Singapore and how their future lives are dependent on choices that are tied to place is based on the lecture given by _______ (name speaker).
Discuss the points raised by the speaker, offer my own interpretation of them, and relate this to the issue of ____ (identify a topic discussed in class/or based on a reading material used in class)”.
The essay should have a middle section or analysis that further discusses and expands your ideas or points that you raised.
There should be a concluding statement that summarizes your main ideas.
