This is a reading and writing intensive course. Students are required to do all the readings and write a “reading response” about 300 word to the assigned close reading(s) given each week (“close readings” are usually PDF texts provided in addition to the readings from the textbook). The first paragraph of the reading response is a summary of the reading (or a section of the reading that you find interesting or worthy of discussion). And the remaining 2-3 paragraphs contains your personal “response” to the reading, either in the form of agreement/disagreement, or in the form of questions about what you don’t understand or what you need clarified further. Bring at least two questions to discuss in class.
