Criterion D: SCIENCES

  •    Be specific, not generic
  • ·      Be explanatory instead of listing points
  • ·      Give scientific and real information, not opinion-based (Criterion D is not a feelings paragraph; you must give reasons)
  • ·      Don’t mix results with impacts e.g. “the reaction rate increased so it is useful” Instead: the increased rate of reaction shows that the process is efficient, making the method suitable for industrial-scale production
  • ·      Use scientific language
  • ·      State clear problems. For example, instead of “this helps in climate change,” say: The use of clean energy such as solar and wind energy reduces the emission of greenhouse gases, which contribute to climate change
  • ·      Avoid vague or uncertain impacts; be very specific
  • ·      Don’t over claim (avoid absolute statements)
  • ·      Don’t overwrite or underwrite

Remember: A strong reflection is one that is analytical, informed, specific, evidence-based, and balanced.
