Reading Response Instructions

via

For each reading assignment you read in this course, you'll need to write a minimum 250 word blog response.

So long as the writing is properly polished and proofread with complete sentences, clear thoughts, and proper mechanics, you may write whatever you like concerning the reading in question. Sometimes that may mean summarizing a particularly sticky essay, other times it may mean expressing your original thinking about it, or relating it to your own life experience. I may also offer some questions to consider along with specific reading assignments. You may discuss these in your blog entry, but it is not required.

In any case, the purpose of these responses is to: 

a) Hold you accountable for completing reading assignments 

b) Help you to chew on each reading assignment by responding to it in your own words.

Again, you will turn in the reading responses by posting them to your blog by class time on designated discussion date.  Have fun!
