Abstract
The writing-intensive capstone course at UIS requires students to apply academic work to APA learning objectives. Course assignments help them reflect on knowledge and skills they developed while completing their degrees. Qualitative analysis will reveal the utility of reflecting on academic outcomes and students’ perceived benefits of a writing-intensive course.
