Reaction Papers

Hi Everyone,

I have had a few questions regarding the criteria for the single page reaction papers (approx. 500 words). The single page papers are only on one of the assigned readings for the week. Once everyone has made their choices for discussion leader I will send out the final updated reading list for the following weeks. The only restriction is that if you are a discussion leader for that week, you must choose an alternative article for the single page paper than the one for which you will be leading the discussion. As it stands for the 18th, you may choose one from any of the readings below:

Bland, D. Drawing on imagination: Primary students' ideal learning environments. Queensland University of Technology

Dyment, J.E. and Bell, A.C. Grounds for Movement: Green School Grounds as Sites for Promoting Physical Activity. Health Education Research, 2008;23(6):952-962.

Eisner, E. What Does It Mean to Say a School Is Doing Well? The Phi Delta Kappan, 2001;82(5):367-372.

Jensen, B.B.  A Case of Two Paradigms. Health Education Research, 1997;12(4):419-428.

Henning, J. Myth Making and the Power of Place in Middle School. The Journal of Museum Education, 2007;32(3):243-252.

Percy-Smith, B. ‘You Think You Know?...You Have No Idea’: Youth Participation in Health Policy Development. Health Education Research, 2007;22(6):879-894.

Your papers should discuss and elaborate on a theme within your chosen article that was of particular interest to you. You will also be expected to develop a question based on your single page paper so that you can support your fellow classmates in maintaining the discussion during their discussion leader turns...  Please let me know if you have any additional questions...

Cheers,

Marie-France
