Overview
The weekly reflection should be a paper summarizing key insights from the assigned material from the week. Reflections should include:
a brief summary of the assigned material – i.e., describe the primary concepts, frameworks and models introduced
key take-aways – i.e., why you think material was assigned, what intrigued or surprised you, and how the concepts relate to other course topics, experiences in your life, models or frameworks from other classes you have taken.
- Students should feel free to disagree with the author or speaker, express counter points to those presented in the material, or point out inconsistencies with other ideas or frameworks.
- These reflective papers are due before class, submitted via the course website by 1:00 PM. They will be graded on a 10-point scale using the rubric posted. Submitting a weekly reflection late will automatically result in 2 points being deducted. Papers should be approximately one page, single-spaced
