EDU+101+QR

A Quick Reflection (QR) has 2 parts:
 * 1) The first 1 to 3 sentences should describe one thing from that reading that "jumped out at you" . . . something you would've highlighted on the print version. Describe what was in that reading that surprised you or made you mad. Was there something that you felt you could really relate to or that you wholeheartedly agreed with? Write about it. Was there a great quote? Type it and put quotation marks around it. Tell why you thought it was great.
 * 2) The second part is 2 to 5 sentences that describe why that part "jumped out at you". Tell how you feel about it and why.

The purpose of a quick reflection is for you to capture the main idea what spoke to you. It should be in-depth enough that after reading it two weeks from now, you could say, "Oh! I remember that!" and then you'd be able to carry on a conversation about the reading.

Just because a QR is short and quick, it still needs to be grammatically correct with proper spelling and punctuation. Your writing must reference the reading directly, it is not meant to be a jumping off point for you to only express opinion. Refer to The Bedford Handbook section on critical reading, especially the part called "Support your claims with specific evidence" (section 47e, page 494 in the 7th edition).
