Write a typed, double-space 12 font paper using textual evidence throughout to support your reflections. You will also be asked to create a question to help generate a class discussion and further the conversation about the assigned reading. This will be used in the class discussion on March 16, 2022. You will simply write your questions at the bottom of your one-page reflection.
The response paper is NOT intended to be just a summary of the selections.
When starting the reflection make sure to include the title of the book Rising Out of Hatred, the author, Eli Saslow, and the chapter title, and then begin reflecting on the chapter. It is a literary analysis paper so I should see a great deal of textual evidence to support your claims.
For example, In the novel Rising Out of Hatred by Eli Saslow, chapter Eight ” “Another Debate and Another Midnight”
Categories to Respond to for your Reading Reflections:
1) Comment on new ideas. What new ideas (theories, methods, etc.) did you learn? What was your favorite/most meaningful idea from the readings? Why? You might want to quote a short piece that you feel is a really important idea or something that you’d like to remember for yourself or to share with others.
2) Connect. How does this reading relate to other materials you have read as a student, including materials from other courses as well as from this course? Do you predict you will use this information in the future, and if so, why?
3) Share experiences/memories. Comment on whether and how the readings relate to your own experiences, either your own history as a student or what’s going on in the world now. Does the reading remind you of anything? What comes to mind as you are reading this selection? Write about these experiences or memories.
4) Ask questions. What confuses you? What don’t you understand? What don’t you agree with? What do you want to be sure to have clarified during the discussion?
5) Above all, react. Write about your reactions to the readings, giving examples and reasons for your reaction. Do you think others will feel the same way?
6) Type the question(s) you want to pose to your peers after the conclusion of your reflection. Make sure to ASK it in our discussion.
Convince me that you have read the selections. Even though I don’t want just a summary, I do want to see evidence that you read the selections you chose to highlight in your response.
