The source reaction is designed to allow you to engage with your sources in a less formal, conversational way.
the response must include:
1.) A 2-3 sentence summary, starting with the main idea worded as “In (title), (author’s name)argues/explains/discusses/observes…”
2.) Paraphrase 2-4 key points from the article & react to them: What parts do you agree with and why? What parts do you disagree with and why? What parts did you feel particularly interesting or puzzling and why? What parts resonate with your own experiences/observations (give examples)? What parts surprised you? (break up into paragraphs & do not use quotes)
3.) What connection can you make to Seaspiracy? Does it corroborate what we saw in the film? Does it contradict? Does it add a new dimension? What details from the documentary illustrate this connection?
4.) MLA citation at the end (does not count towards the required length)
These responses are to be 1.5 to 2 full pages in length (not including the citation), in paragraphs, and in proper MLA format
