You are free to use them as examples in your assignments to support your arguments if you wish (i.e. there are great examples in there to write about).

– Identify a larger topic or question that you think connects the different texts
– Explain how this reading connects to previous weeks of the course.
– When the readings for the week engage with the same topic differently, you may want to advocate for one interpretation over another
– Use examples from the readings/lectures/podcasts to illustrate the concepts.
