answer the questions shown in the picture below.
if the article is a narrative, you answer the narrative questions
if its an argument,you answer the argument questions
Item 1: Summary
What is the argument or main message of your source? (Write a 1-paragraph summary).
Item 2: Exploration–answer the question(s)
If you’re using an Argument: In what ways is the argument logical, fair, and reasonable (even if you happen to
think it’s weak, why might some reasonable people agree with the author)?
If you’re using a Narrative: What makes the narrative seem truthful, important, and relevant? Why should the
narrative matter to other people now, today?
Item 3: Skepticism/ Questioning–choose one or more questions
If you’re using Argument: What are the problems, flaws, or gaps in the argument? Even if you think it’s
basically strong, why might some reasonable people disagree with the author? What objections can you raise
about the argument? Try hard to be rigorous, but if you really can’t find “flaws,” what new questions and areas
for development does the argument raise?
If you’re using a Narrative: What voice or perspective does the narrative allow us to hear that is perhaps often
hidden? Moreover, what do you think are some *other* possible perspectives on the same issue/problem raised
in the narrative? In other words, how would the same experience/issue/problem look from a different
perspective?
the form its supposed to look like and somesamples are in the files provided below.
