Each week you should submit before the class meeting (perhaps by Tuesday evening), a one page discussion of your reactions to the reading (not summaries, but critiques: reasoned argument is preferred, but gripes and raves are allowed). These will be useful in stimulating discussion. (You can submit these by email if you want, to a group list we will devise.) Also, you will be asked each week to report on one of the supplementary readings, orally: this can be more of a summary with critique and should be geared to the exchange of information between students reading different selections.

Below are a number of samples of student reaction papers for each class session.
