How to Read Literature
like a Professor
Directions: There are Twenty-Eight Chapters in this book
and an Introduction and an Interlude.
You will be assigned one of these to present to the class in three ways. Your job is to present the main ideas of the
chapter to the rest of the class in a clear, organized and hopefully
entertaining way.
This
assignment is worth 100 points.
1. Read your chapter: Take hand-written notes. You will turn in these notes. Do not use any AI to summarize the
chapter. If I suspect that you used AI,
I will fail you.
2. Make a One Slide Presentation (Power
Point of Google Slides) of what your chapter is about. Clearly discuss the key concept and ideas
that the author presents in easy-to-understand language that we can all
understand and remember.
3. Make a Class Poster on a ½ sheet of Poster Board that has all of the key
concepts in easy to see and understandable language. Make it nice.
Make it so that we can see it when it’s hung in the class and referred
to as we go through the year. DO NOT ROLL IT UP!
4. Present your work to the class in a 2-3 minute
oral presentation.
