reading report

Each student will complete four reading reports, one for each part of the textbook (except part 5). Each report will be approximately 350 words long in APA format (cover page, NO abstract, 1-inch margin all around, double spacing and 12-point Times New Roman/Arial font). Make sure your report uses proper grammar, sentence structure and organization via paragraphs.

In the first half of the report, you will summarize in your own words the content of the part of the book you read.

In the second half of the report, you will discuss 1 or 2 issue(s)/topic(s)/theories in or related to the part you read.

For the second half your discussion may include but is not limited to:

• Why do you think the issue/topic/theory is important or interesting?
• What are the applications of the theories/principle/information in real life settings?
• What are the important issues/questions that are not addressed by the book?
• How does this issue/topic/theory apply to your own life?
• How will this new knowledge affect you in future endeavors?
• Any critiques on the theories, principles, or other content in this part of the book?
