Voice-to-text? That "reflection" thing is a killer for some kids who hate doing it with written expression. DD will talk to me for hours, but wind up spontaneously WRITING just a sentence or two, and that badly organized. It's crazy-making-- and she CAN do a better job, but only if she organizes rather than trying to do stream-of-consciousness in a single draft.
I'd even offer to scribe it for him, or offer question-based prompts if you have the rubric handy... after all, if HE does the rest himself, it's just the one section that you're helping with. I can virtually guarantee that other parents are at least that involved in any particular student's case-- some globally, and some just in one area like this.
