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 class 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.
