Reading and Writing

3 important items, 2 interesting issues, & 1 question. “Important items” are those pieces of information that are essential to know about the readings: main ideas, thesis, key concepts, etc. For example, if someone hadn't read the reading and they heard your 3 important things they would have a good sense of the main ideas in the reading. “Interesting things” are those pieces of information that were new, surprising, thought-provoking, etc. for you. These give you the chance to make judgments and think critically about the reading, subjectively responding to it. “The question” is either something you did not understand/want clarification on OR something you'd like to know more about/would be interested in exploring further as we learn/discuss more in class.
