This is a pass/fail assignment. Students will receive 1 point for the successful completion of the assignment. Failure to successfully complete this assignment will result in failure of the course.

You may submit up to 2 extra credit commentaries on any of the assigned (non-textbook) readings throughout the semester.  Each commentary is worth 2 points of extra credit added to your overall point total for the semester.  To earn these points, you must submit a 3-5 page double-spaced response to a selected assigned research article on Canvas.

Your commentary should have a clearly stated argument which you then support with logic and additional academic sources.  As long as you critically engage with a reading in an organized, coherent manner that is generally free of grammatical and spelling errors, you will earn both possible points.  Some example prompts for a commentary include (but are not limited to):

• Explain why the article made an important contribution to the field.
  • Briefly summarize the state of research prior to the article and how the article built off of that foundation and propelled the field forward in a meaningful way. Use class readings or outside sources to support your argument.
