Monologue".  All of my students for the past 10 years have written a 3 to 5 minute orally presented monologue.  They are to try to answer that question, "Who Am I?" in a monologue.  I am able to gain so much valuable knowledge from them! It helps to create a class culture of respect where every student feels valued.
