Answers should be at least two paragraphs in length and reflect a thorough reading of our texts and an understanding of the complexities that shaped historical actors and events. If you quote or use any information directly from our readings, you must cite the author and page number like this (Kinzer, p.23) right in the text after the material you’re borrowing. There is no need to use books or internet material other than our text readings for that week.

2. Comment on, question, or critique the attachment “Peer Editing“ in at least 4 sentences.

Critique, question, and add to what they’ve written, but do so politely and respectfully. Credit for this part will be determined by how effectively you respond in this way.

Neither will repeating parts of your own answer or critical responses that are disrespectful or don’t provide a thoughtful rationale.
