I dont know how to handle this Sociology question and need guidance.
The purpose of this assignment is to enable students to reflect on and critically evaluate social
work practice in a variety of settings, and address issues of diversity with regard to social work
practice. These readings are found on Blackboard. In your Reaction Essay, you should read the
assigned articles carefully and:
Demonstrate understanding of the main themes/ controversies presented in the articles
Make connections between ideas presented by the authors/ arguments
Explore your feelings about the ideas and arguments made by the authors
Show evidence of original thought and critical thinking about the topic
Utilize correct APA format, including paraphrasing and citing sources correctly
It is expected that students will present information in such a manner that it is clear each
assigned reading has been read and that true, professional reflection has occurred. Superficial
Reaction Essays those for which the Instructor cannot easily ascertain that reading has occurred
will not receive credit. In addition, reaction essays should not be book reports, and should
not be a cut-and-paste regurgitation of the material. Well-written reaction essays should reflect
critical thinking/ discourse about the content/issues/themes presented by the authors.
