Summaries & Analyses

Once you do the reading ahead of its due date, please enter your first 150-word summary responses as a comment to this post. The 150 words covers all the assigned pages, but feel free to write more if you wish. Your summary response can address any of the questions below or more:

  1. What did you learn?
  2. Can you share a personal experience that supports or challenges the author’s statements.
  3. Do you have other pieces of information from other sources or you experience that connect in some way to the authors claims?
  4. How is what you learned related to our class, your other classes, your future job, other areas of life, and/or our major assignments?

Be sure to read closely, highlighting key passages and taking notes about your thoughts and reactions. Use the Reading and Annotating Guide to prepare a thorough summary/response.
