Part 1: READING RESPONSE REFLECTIONS (SHORT BUT FOCUSED) FOR 2 ARTICLES (#1 Getzel & #2 Roer-Strier) Include a list of new and salient ideas, vocabulary (and names of important people and organizations),
information, issues and perspectives learned from the week’s readings (you may use bulleted notes, and these may be brief – BUT SPECIFIC/DETAILED – SUCH AS DATES, ETC).
IMPORTANT TO ADDRESS:
How have the readings supported and/or contradicted your image of disability support services in higher education?
Provide your reflection to the readings. You may use the following questions to guide you:
1) How did the readings for the week help you understand and/or rethink the topic for the week?
2) How have the readings supported and/or contradicted what you thought before?
3) Were there ambiguities, contradictions, areas of concern and/or confusions among the readings, explain the significance?
4) How do the readings inform your philosophy of Disability Services for Neuro-diverse Students?
5) And/or were the readings useful (if so, to whom), explain?
Try to focus on your analysis/synthesis rather than a summary of the articles.
Length: Total of approximately 250 Words (1 page) for Reading Response (this includes the list and your reflection)
Part 2: GIVE AN IN-DEPTH REFLECTION (NOT A SYNOPSIS) OF THE READINGS IN YOUR OWN WORDS FOR 3 ARTICLES (200 WORDS)
Your responses should be SUBSTANTIVE (but, not overly exhaustive when appropriate): they should demonstrate a serious engagement with the text(s), all claims you make should be fully and completely explained and claims about what the text says should be backed with PROPER quotations and/or evidence from the text. Be sure to provide enough reference information in your responses so that we can find the page/quotation/etc. that you are referring to or discussing in your responses. You may not recycle/use thoughts, phrases from the reflection in Part 1. YOU MAY NOT USE ANY OUTSIDE SOURCES – ONLY WHAT IS PROVIDED.
This should focus more on your REFLECTION / REACTION (Light Citation should be incorporated) in approximately 200 words per reading. Cite the source after response
