Guidelines for Article Reaction Papers

Over the course of the semester, you’ll be assigned three articles that relate to particular course topics. For each article reaction assignment, you are to read and carefully evaluate the assigned article and develop something to say about it during class discussion. Bring a typewritten question, with your attempt to answer the question, or a reaction to the article (1 page in length, double-spaced, 12-point font). The question/reaction should be analytic (miniature essay questions) rather than questions of fact or trivia. In a reaction paragraph, you might propose an experiment, or relate the article to another article you’ve read. During class, aim to share your ideas freely and support your arguments thoughtfully. The size of our class makes it unlikely that everyone will be able to share something during class; however, the intellectual excitement of a course depends on the active participation of all students, so we’ll do the best that we can. Article reaction papers must be turned in on their specified due dates. Late article reaction papers will not be accepted without an institutional (Instructor approved) excuse.
