The Miser
Post a personal reflection that connects the assigned reading to something with personal relevance to you. This requires you to both define/summarize a key component of the reading AND apply that concept/theory to your lived experience. You may include quoted material, but you should not count the quoted material towards the word count minimum. And, you should still thoroughly explain what you have quoted, i.e. paraphrase in your own words. While it is OK for you to use lectures to help you understand the text, you should not rely solely on lecture videos for this assignment. If you reference lecture instead of the assigned reading, you will lose a 1/4 point. Choose one of the following questions to answer in at least 100 words; conciseness is ideal.
How do you personally relate to this reading? What ideas, concepts, theories, or information have personal relevance for you? In other words, how did this reading help you to make sense of your own lived experience? Do not answer this question if you cannot relate!
How do the ideas, concepts or theories in this reading relate to other readings we have done this semester or to course material you have learned in other classes? Be specific!
How do the ideas, concepts, or theories in this reading relate to fictional pieces or pop culture? You can relate the work to a book, short story, poem, television show, movie, song, etc. Feel free to apply the theory to Hunger Games
