please follow the instructions EXACTLY as written in the document – carefully look over the essay grading rubric to understand how your essay will be assessed. You are not required to cite every reading but you MUST cite the majority of them, particularly those listed under #1. Do NOT summarize – I want opinions, insights, and your thoughts related to the prompt. Write in first person – no cover page, no extra space between paragraphs, 12pt type, double-space, no name at top of page
These approximately four- to six-page assignments are short critical essays based on ALL of the readings assigned for that period of the semester. They give you a chance to give your perspective and point of view on the readings this is NOT an opportunity to regurgitate information contained in the readings! You should write in the first person. No outside readings are permitted. No cover sheet. No footnotes and no bibliography. If you quote of paraphrase use this format: blah blah blah (author, page #).
