Order Description
This assignment is aimed to demonstrate your readin" rel="nofollow">ing comprehension and your critical thin" rel="nofollow">inkin" rel="nofollow">ing abilities.
The posts should be carefully written: clear, concise, without grammar or spellin" rel="nofollow">ing errors.
300-350 words each, or longer.
-Explain" rel="nofollow">in how the text you are commentin" rel="nofollow">ing on relates to the readin" rel="nofollow">ing that will be presented in" rel="nofollow">in course. My lectures will be based on the readin" rel="nofollow">ings that are not marked with
an asterisk.
(e.g.) week 5: how does Kosnick’s article relate to Georgiou’s contribution? Do you notice any connectin" rel="nofollow">ing poin" rel="nofollow">ints/ any differences?
-Illustrate the text with a personal experience, but please keep in" rel="nofollow">in min" rel="nofollow">ind that your in" rel="nofollow">input should not outweigh the readin" rel="nofollow">ing discussion. Aim at this proportion: 2/3
readin" rel="nofollow">ing discussion, 1/3 personal example.
-Situate the text in" rel="nofollow">in a social or historical context (shift from a narrow to a broader perspective).
-Identify an idea that you disagree with and explain" rel="nofollow">in why your perspective is
different.
-Respond to a colleague’s post: build on it, disagree with it, examin" rel="nofollow">ine it from a
different perspective.
