Expectations for discussion
I am prepared for this 

• Being prepared by having read my text thoroughly and reflectively and by having marked key passages in my text
• Asking questions about what I have read, heard, and seen
• Making judgments that I can defend with specific textual evidence
• Explaining to others how I have inferred an idea by exploring the passage that has led me to this conclusion
• Asking for clarification of any passage I have read but which I do not understand
• Being courteous and respectful of my peers and lending support to a peer’s argument
• Commenting on what my peer has said before going on to make my point
• Searching for connections between other concepts or readings we have done in this class or the world at large.
