Reading Response
Reading Response Guidelines
In your reading response, you should highlight the key arguments, and provide your own critical assessment of the readings. You can also draw connections among the readings, lecture content, as well as the films that we watch in class. The purpose of the reading response is to help you practice your own critical thinking on the subject matter of this course.
Note: Do not just summarize the readings and the film that you mention. You have to add some personal opinions into it. (assessment/discussion)
I do not need cover page and references.
Follow the sample paper’s format. (Mention the reading’s title in the beginning)
If you quote anything from the reading, use (Last name, page)
Don’t forget to mention both 2 assigned readings, and the film A City of Sadness on this paper.
Film screening: A City of Sadness (Hou Hsiao-Hsien, 1989)
(You don’t need to watch the whole film, just research this film that is related to the assigned reading, which is Second Coming The Legacy of Taiwan New Cinema)
