Document Summary

Please use the following guidelines to structure your journal responses to the assigned readings. Go to the end of the text, and read the final paragraphs and determine the connection to the beginning paragraphs. Write down your thoughts: keep reading, asking questions that reflect on your positioning vs. the author"s positioning. Cite four or five specific passages or paragraphs from the text. Transcribe the passages or paragraphs into your journal, being certain to cite the page number, and then briefly explain why they are of interest to you: look up words, phrases, and terms you do not know. List the words and define them: after finishing the essay, summarize in writing the author"s message, making specific references to the text where the message is stated or implied.
