Critical Thinking: Reflection

Class,
In the past, I have had MANY questions about this assignment, and I have seen MANY errors with the successful competition of this assignment. Please read this announcement in full to ensure you understand what I want and know how to find the necessary materials.
“Here are the instructions, with my advice represented in the areas where the font has been made bold:
Over the past 5 weeks, you have learned about different elements related to critical thinking. You related the concepts to your personal experiences and evaluated your critical thinking skills. You have identified fallacies, evaluated arguments, and learned the role of these concepts in your daily life. Now it’s time to apply the concepts. In this assignment, you will review a real-world scenario and apply the critical thinking skills you have developed.
Review the Real-World Critical Thinking Scenario.
Write a 350- to 700-word reflection on the scenario, using the Reflection Template. Follow the instructions within the template to complete your reflection. You will need to include an introduction paragraph to introduce your reader to the topics you will be discussing; 3 body paragraphs, each with specific questions that need to be addressed within; and a conclusion paragraph to bring your paper to a close.
Note: The Reflection Template is already formatted appropriately, and you do not need to make any changes to the format. The questions to help you write the 3 paragraphs are contained in the template. Be sure to demonstrate your critical thinking abilities in your responses to the questions and ensure your paper flows well from topic to topic. Make sure you are completing this in MS Word, not Google Docs and saving as a MS Word Doc as it will most likely goof up your formatting.
Submit your assignment.”
Let me also add some basic writing advice I often see problems with this assignment:
Write exclusively in the third person, unless specifically told otherwise (I don’t want to see any “I’s,” “We’s,” “Us’s,” or “You’s.”)
Make sure your intros and conclusions are comprehensive, meaning make sure they both include a reference to the main theme (I expect to see both “Sally” and “critical thinking” mentioned) as well as the main topics that will be discussed (I expect to see the verbiage from each heading included.)
Make sure your intro ends with a strong thesis, or statement comprised of 1-2 sentences that encapsulate the paper. (If you are telling a friend what you are writing about in 1-2 sentences, that would be your thesis. Most instructors expect to see it as your last 1-2 sentences in the introduction.)
Use vocabulary from the course. (I want to see words like “barrier,” “fallacy,” specific barriers, specific fallacies, etc.)
Expect your reader to have no prior knowledge of the topic(s)
