Three posts from this page will be included in my final assignments as informal assignments.
I wrote this essay by myself at first, and after finish it, I had it checked by my tutor. Because I worked by myself, I could think about my own opinion. It is hard for me to have my own opinion since I have never asked to state/write about it before. When I talk with other people about their opinion, I sometimes unconsciously take their opinion as mine. Thus, it worked for me to take my time alone and think about what I think. Also, it was good to have it checked by the tutor because I could find the weak point of my opinion and find the answer to it.
As I wrote above, having my own opinion was the most difficult part for me and to overcome, I spent some time alone and think about it. Also, I used paper to think about it. At first I tried to start the essay, but I didn’t know what to write, so I took a paper and write whatever came in my mind. I didn’t think it would work, but it was a good approach to organize my thinking. I worked this project in library after my classes, same as when I did the Hiraeth assignment, which was good. However, I couldn’t take enough time to reread and rewrite the essay since I took too much time on thinking. Thus, I need to be able to think in shorter time and have more time to think about the writing itself next time. I chose this topic because I thought both of the two authors insisted that we needed to change the educational environment and the differences of their claims were what we had to change, and Kohn doesn’t contradict growth mindset itself. Thus, I thought about my opinion toward what we need to change, and I finally got to the answer what we have to change is adults’ attitude toward children or students, not the educational system. My new writing process especially when writing about my opinion is:
(400 words) It is messy and have a lot of mistakes but this is the paper I wrote to think about my opinion.

This post provides a nice summary of your writing process. I think your six steps provide a solid framework for your process. I see potential for deep reflection here:

It's a good strategy to write everything in your mind first to organize your thoughts
