Class Required Readings (pdf attached)
Class Discussions (pdf attached)
Reflections should be approximately 500 words and include 3 discussion questions critically analyzing the course material (1 discussion question pertaining to each aspect of that week’s course material).
Reflection assignments provide a structured format for considering the larger issues. The point is not to provide the “right answer,” but to ask the right questions, practicing the skills necessary to grapple with difficult concepts and complex situations.
(Please note, good discussion questions are those that allows for more than a binary (yes/no | this/that) response. Try to avoid questions that push people into thinking that they must decide between two options, and then justify their decision. Instead, ask question that allow people to consider the complexities surrounding the issues, and express them in a way that provides a space for nuanced understanding of complex issues. For example, rather than asking a question that asks “Do you think…” consider asking “How do you think…” Of course, this is just an example, so don’t think you are limited to only asking “How” question, but the idea of opening the question is key. The difference is small, but it has a dramatic affect on the way people are capable of responding to a question.
Avoid questions that serve only as general inquiries. These are questions that ask specific answers about a topic, but doesn’t really serve as a springboard for good discussion. An example of this would be “How does Islam define evil?” While this is an interesting question, it’s not really a question that allows for interactive discussion.). https://youtu.be/efcABHQt3X0?si=EVALpfZ-I2zmQr8H
