Reading reflections
Writing tips. First, do not plagiarize the readings and remember that I’ve read them so you don’t need to give me a summary. Your reflection can be based on all reading materials of that week, one article/book chapter, or a section of a certain article/book chapter. Discussion questions will be posted each week. Those questions are intended to help bring relevance to your learning and writing, as well as formulate your participation in in-class activities and inform your final paper. However, it’s totally OK if you prefer to write something else/from another perspective, such as: connections you see between the readings and prior readings and class discussion, and/or your personal experiences; questions you have about the readings and/or points of confusion; things you’d like to learn more about in the future; reflections about how the readings changed your ideas about information science; revisions to your earlier thinking after having the benefit of additional time for reflection, etc. Each entry should be about 300-400 words. Feel free to write in the first person.
