The Daily Response Groups


THE DAILY RESPONSE GROUPS

These groups determine which students will lead the class discussion on which day. It will follow this simple rotation: EGYPT-CHINA-JAPAN-INDIA-AFRICA (we’ll start on Monday with Egypt). On your group’s day, please answer two of the four questions on the blog and bring them to question. You may be called on to give one of your answers in class, and you will be required to turn them in that day for credit. Missing the questions on your group day will be an immediately -10 pts. for your Response grade. Likewise, not being able to respond when called on will hurt your Participation grade—so be careful!

REMEMBER: you are required to turn in at least ONE response for each book. For most books, that will be the day your group leads. However, on books we spent less than 5 days on, not every group will get to lead, which means you’ll have to answer the questions on any of the discussion days. And of course, you can turn in extra questions or simply do all the questions and not turn them in; answering the questions helps you focus on the readings and study for the Comprehension Exams and the papers that follow.
