Reflective Question

Write a 1-2 page journal entry. Your journal should be a MS Word document you keep adding to throughout the semester. In it, please date each entry. For each entry, reflect on the readings for the week and record your thinking as well as questions you have about the readings. The journal should not contain summaries of the readings. Your thoughts should reflect your analysis or synthesis of things covered in the readings (e.g., “The existence of food deserts in inner city communities seems intentional to me because _______”). Your questions should not be factual or clarifying, but should stimulate disagreement among reasonable people (e.g., “Are charter schools and school choice really a better option than district public schools? What’s the evidence?”). Pull 2-3 questions from your journal entry that you think would be good to discuss in class and submit them via email to the instructors by Wednesday at midnight (the night prior to when we will discuss the readings).
