Knowledge of Conventions
Conventions are the formal rules and informal guidelines that define genres, and in so doing, shape readers and writers
expectations of correctness or appropriateness. Most obviously, conventions govern such things as mechanics, usage, spelling,
and citation practices. But they also influence content, style, organization, graphics, and document design.
Critical Reflection
Critical reflection is a writers ability to articulate what s/he is thinking and why. For example, to explain the choices made in a
composition, to contextualize a composition, to address revisions made in response to reader feedback etc.
