The main point: Provide a brief summary of the author’s main point(s). A single paragraph is usually adequate, at most two paragraphs. 2. The development of the idea: Explain how the author develops and supports that point, particularly as it relates to what you are learning in the Book of Acts and the Larkin commentary. (Double Space; about 2-3 pages.) 3. Your personal response: Drawing from what you have been learning in this class, as well as your own experience, respond to the author’s point(s). In this section you may raise questions in response to this reading, or state implications of the author’s point(s) that strike you as important. You can also refute the claim or provide a counter-example if you disagree with it. (Double Space; about 2-3 pages.) NOTE: This is a critical part of the review and demands your special attention. Assessment: Grades will be based on several factors: • the paper’s content – does it satisfactorily cover the main points of the article or book? • the paper’s organization and writing quality – does it conform to the instructions above, and does it follow traditional rules of spelling, punctuation, and grammar? • The paper’s insightfulness– does it reflect a serious and personal interaction with the key ideas, or does it appear shallow, suggesting the paper was hurriedly written right before the deadline? • Papers turned in late will be penalized at a rate of 25% per calendar day.
