To what extent was your learning experience positive or negative?

For this assignment, you are going write a minimum 800-word paper that reflects upon your overall learning in this course. The Week 8 Materials and Week 8 Lecture should amply prepare you for writing this reflection; specifically, the various questions and considerations presented in the readings, the overview, and the lecture should give you a very strong sense of how to approach reflection writing. That said, here is a succinct list of questions that should help guide you:
What did you already know about writing prior to this course? What were your previous educational experiences? In what ways was this experience similar or different to previous ones?
Now that the course is over, what are your overall impressions or reactions to the course? To what extent was your learning experience positive or negative?
What did you learn about writing from this course? About online education? About college courses overall?
How did you approach this course? Were your approaches successful? Why or why not?
What surprised you about this course? What were the most powerful learning moments, and what make them so?
What were the most challenging moments in this course and what made them so? How did you overcome these challenges?
What was the most important thing you learned about yourself in this course? What learning experiences will be most applicable to your life moving forward?
What connections can you make between your prior knowledge about writing and the knowledge you gained in this course?
What do you think you will do similarly in courses moving forward? What will you do differently or improve upon?
How might you have better supported your classmates in this course? What can you improve upon for future courses?
Once again, the goal is NOT to write a paper that answers each question in the order they appear above. Rather, the goal is to genuinely reflect upon what you have learned. You can certainly choose questions from above to guide you, and the best reflections will address the before, during, and after stages of the learning process.
