The reading responses are meant as a journal for your reflections on the texts: as such, they may be informal or creative in their form and tone and should reflect your personal perspective. They should also display an engagement with each text that indicates your having read them and formed opinions or questions about the ideas present. Whether or not you agree with the ideas in the text, your engagement and curiosity is required. Good communication, spelling, argumentation, and grammar are expected. Full academic citations are not necessary, but acknowledgment of authors of quotes and references is.
NOTE: I’m an international student. English is my second language, please do not use tooo fancy vocabulary and grammar.
