What are reading reflections?
Reading reflections are to be completed either while doing the reading or immediately after. An overview:
- Should take between 15-60 minutes to complete, depending on how quickly you read.
- You will be asked to highlight portions of the text on a print-out and submit it in the same class.
- There will be some questions that require reflection on your highlights.
- They will be due before the end of your lab time.
How reflections work
- You only need to complete two reflections over the term.
- There are four available.
- You may complete up to three reflections and the lowest grade will be dropped.
Instructions
While reading or after reading "Gestalt Principles (98-115), Framing (116-127)" (Lupton, 2015) please highlight sentences in the text that you do not understand or find confusing.
Once done highlighting, please:
- Select two highlights that you did not understand or found confusing.
- Briefly explain what or why each highlight was difficult to understand or found confusing.
If you are unable to find highlights you do not understand or find confusing, please complete the following instead:
- Select two highlights that evoked a strong response from you.
- Explain what was your response and why each highlight evoked a strong response.
Submission
Your responses can be submitted anytime before the end of your lab time on October 1.
