20 Sep Only course-assigned material should be used
The Critical Analysis (CA) prompts will help you build an understanding of course content by asking you to make connections between assigned readings and lectures and course themes. You should use specific evidence from readings, lectures, and/or section in your responses, citing as needed. CA will cover course material from Reading Part Three & Four.
Only course-assigned material should be used in responding to the prompt unless otherwise directed. Please cite your sources for all words, information, and ideas (videos, readings, weekly notes, etc.). Please use quotation marks when you are using someone elses exact words. If you are paraphrasing, paraphrase completely, and cite your source. Your citation should include the authors name and the page number if there is one. If you are using course resources that were assigned to you, then you do not need to also have a Works Cited page. If you use sources from outside of the course, then you do need to provide a full citation in a Works Cited page, using MLA format.

CA Guideline: Please refer specifically to the course readings in your answers, but in doing so, avoid including too many long direct quotations in your responses. Though the CA is set to 700 words, there is no penalty if you go (a bit) over the word limit.
Just to be clear, the total content analysis is to be 700 words max. That being said, a strong response of 400-500 words can easily earn an A!
To reiterate: it is not 700 words per question.
