: This is an opportunity for you to conduct four written analyses of the readings. Here, your task is to identify connections or divergent arguments operating across the readings, to engage one author’s arguments to question the other, and so on. You can choose to write about a set of readings or an individual reading. For example, you could put one author in conversation with another to analyze a key finding. Or, you could focus on one specific argument and develop an analysis of this. These are not summaries of the readings, but critical analyses of the articles which require close reading and careful thinking. Given the online format, this is an opportunity to receive direct feedback on your thinking on the readings.
