Assignment for Text Chapters


Assignment for Text Chapters


According to the daily schedule, for each text chapter do the following:


For each of the units (as well as additional assignments given in class), students will do the following:

  • Read assigned materials with care and understanding,
  • Reflect on the assignments in writing (a brief paragraph or two), discussing your thoughts on the primary content; include points of personal interest.
  • Review main points of the reading and create a personalized three-level primary question and answer outline on a minimum of three or four selected items from the assigned readings.  The outline should develop the main topics in question form with a clear and concise answer followed by significant details with definitions and examples, including your own ideas and evaluations.
  • Email your assignments to me at profsylvia@gmail.com, with your outline and reflections attached or in the body of your email.  Be sure to keep a copy of the email for yourself and add it to your ePortfolios/PowerPoint presentations for midterm and final submission and sharing.
Additional option -- Mind Mapping:

1. Create a graphic organizer ("mind map") of 3-5 main ideas and supporting elements in each chapter. You may use MS Word's drawing tools, the Freemind software, or another tool of your choice
2. Write a summary paragraph using your mind map as guide.
3. E-mail your assignments as attachments to me at profsylvia@gmail.com
