Hi i need someone to follow the instructions below and I have attached the reading that we need to respond to below also.
Response papers:
Write a 1-2 page paper for every reading assigned. The response paper should be a reaction to reading reflecting your thoughts, rather than a summary of the reading. You should use one or two brief quotations from the author (not the editor’s introduction, which precedes the reading) to connect your discussion with the text. No sources other than the assigned text may be used.
You may either:
Present a critical analysis of the article.
Identify a central argument and criticize it.
Choose a central claim of the author and critically evaluate it in terms current educational issues.
Choose a central claim of the author and apply it to an educational strategy in a teaching context you are interested in.

1-2: Paper has little or no direct relevance to the reading.
