What are reading reflections?

They 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.
• Will be completed on paper, during the lecture time.
• You will be asked to highlight portions of the text on a print-out and submit it with your reflection.
• There will be questions that require reflection on your highlights.
• They will be due before the end of your lecture time.
