Thinking Corner

Bring the information in the texts you are reading. Bring what you read, listen, watch... (break what you read into its most pertinent parts). You can do this by:

   - identifying the main points and themes of the articles/chapters you are reading
   - thinking about the theoretical perspectives the author has used and being alert to their biases (and yours)
   - thinking about what aspects of the issue the author has not dealt with in his/her argument that you think are relevant
   - evaluating the claims and evidence made in the texts
  -  integrating ideas from a range of authors and readings
  -  noting what you need to clarify and follow up
   - making comparisons and contrasts between the different articles you have read
  -  forming your own opinion or a position about what you are reading
  -  gathering appropriate referenced evidence and examples to support your position
 -   writing critically - incorporating different voices.
