Summary-Response

Overview

Over the past couple weeks, you have read about and discussed three social issues:language and power; freedom and security; and health and wealth. For this assignment, you will summarize and respond to the readings related to one of the social issues covered in weeks 2-4.

Content

Select one of the social issues covered in 2-4. The possible issues are: language and power, freedom and security, and health and wealth. Consider which issue interests you the most or about which you have a clear, strong perspective; ideally you will continue to work with this issue throughout the remainder of the course assignments.

Now choose two of the readings selections related to that social issue. For each of those two readings,

• write a 1-2 paragraph summary of the reading selection.
• write a 1-2 paragraph response to the reading selection.

Organization

• First present the 1-2 paragraph summary and the 1-2 paragraph response for your first reading selection. Then, present the 1-2 paragraph summary and the 1-2 paragraph response for your second reading selection.
• Be sure that your paragraphs follow the guidelines for paragraph structure. 
• Review the sub-module on Summarizing and Responding to Readings for a sample summary-response paper.
