For each week that we have scheduled readings, you are required to submit to me by email two
discussion questions about that evening’s texts. I will use your questions to inform and structure
class discussion. The success of our discussions will directly depend upon your ability to generate
insightful and open-ended questions as well as your willingness to explore your own and
colleagues’ points of view.
I must receive your questions, like all electronic correspondence, via your UTD email account.
Questions should be submitted by 6:00 p.m. the day of the class.
You may always submit questions of clarification, but as the semester progresses I will expect
your questions to become more analytical and comparative in character. By the final part of the
semester, you should be able to formulate questions that draw together or contrast groups of texts
and one week’s readings with previous readings.
