Sometimes we are stimulated to explore. Sometimes we want to bring up other ideas. In short, our active minds want to do more with what we read than simply absorb and faithfully give it back. We are now going to take advantage of that fact and respond to this material. Your third major unit this quarter is to compose a project that is expressive, reflective, critical or creative in its approach.
Projects go from the traditional essay to the more visually and technically oriented.
Either focus on one, or more than one, to form a theme or topic that stimulates your interest and response. Look here, Mr. Gore, . . . But your thesis must focus on the readings. Here you would display and practice your traditional essay writing skills and show you can blend well-attributed summary, paraphrase and quoting into your responses. If you let the chapter headings guide you, you can find themes you can relate to.
