Sample self-reflection prompts
- What’s your path to your college education? Share your educational timeline with key milestones and setbacks as Malala does. Interview your parents and grandparents on their educational journeys. Consider how their oral histories differ from your own narrative.
- Malala’s story teaches us that one person can make a big difference. If you had the chance to speak to a world leader, what issues would you bring to their attention? What examples of the issue would you highlight, and what solutions would you offer?
- Identify the values, rights, or beliefs that matter most to you. What would you be willing to risk your life for the way Malala did for the right to attend school? Explore what people or factors have influenced your values, e.g. family, community, religion, nationality, socioeconomic status.
