Issues of Interest #3 Guidelines


In this assignment, you will review and respond to French-American related interest stories which have been posted on the course Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/FYSFreedomFries.  Post your review on the Issues of Interest blog, which can be accessed from the course webpage.

In addition to providing the link to the article and its title, include a brief summary of the story as well as a few sentences describing its relevancy to issues discussed in class.  Please look closely at posts which have already been contributed to the Issues of Interest #2 blog; you may not post a response to an article already used by a classmate.  Each response should be different and unique! As always, adhere to the standards for formal, academic writing at the college level.

Your grade will be determined by the following criteria:

 

 1)    Title of article and link provided (1 pt)

 2)    Relevancy to course material/discussion (5 pts)

 

 3)    Summary of the article (5 pts) 

 4)   Critical reflection on the source (4 pts)

 

There will be 5 posts required over the course of the semester, so be on the lookout for additional articles!
