By the time you are starting to work on your research project in the second half of the class, you will have become familiar with the closed research theme readings for this class and will have a strong basis for your independent research and your final argument paper. For this check-in, please do the following: Select and read TWO closed research theme readings from the closed research theme list for this class (in Modules) that you have NOT yet read. Click the Start Assignment button. In the text entry box for this assignment, write or copy the titles of the readings you selected. Then answer at least ONE of the following questions. Please write a total of at least 50 words, not counting the reading titles. You may write more! Which reading did you find most interesting, striking, troubling, or concerning? Why? How does one or both readings relate to the readings you have already read and commented on? Do they agree, disagree, or say “Okay, but”? How does one or both readings respond to the guiding theme question for this class? Does one or both readings bring in a new angle or perspective that helps you better understand the closed research theme? Write at least one question you have about one or both readings.
