Seminar Reflection and Synthesis (Email me by Sunday!)
- Reflect on the outcome of the seminar. Consider your own performance and the seminar overall. How did you do personally and how did the group do collectively? Based on the rubric, what grade do you deserve on the seminar? * Please explain why you think you deserve this grade.
- React to something one of your peers said when you were in the outer circle. Was there anything that enlightened you? Something you particularly disagree with? How did your thinking about the book change as a result of this seminar?
- Write a paragraph about one of the themes of the book, using one quote or illustrative example from the text to make your point. (Make an interpretive claim about the book and support it with evidence.) Your claim may be something you develop further from your seminar prep, or it may be a new idea that you acquired during the seminar.
*If you are not happy with your seminar performance, you may write out answers to the seminar prep questions using textual evidence for an improved grade. See: Seminar Make-up Assignment
