This assignment requires each student to read and review the various assigned readings (articles, book chapters, etc.) per
class session and write a synopsis of the readings. The rationale for this type of assignment is to promote conceptual
understanding, critical thinking, and practical application. A good synopsis encompasses an overview and synthesis of the
key concepts, themes, and/or issues in the readings and an explication of those key concepts and/or issues. A logical
presentation of the concepts and/or issues is expected. Each synopsis should end with some implications/applications for
policy and practice in a local, state, or national context. Basically, the structure should consist of an overview paragraph
that embraces all the themes and concepts in the readings. The subsequent paragraphs will expatiate on the identified
themes and concepts (synthesis is key). There should be a concluding paragraph that summarizes your take on the
readings, and it should be followed by another paragraph-which is implications/applications to a local, state, national
and/or international context(s).
