COMM 1000    SYMPOSIUM REFLECTIONS ASSIGNMENT
As
part
of
your
work
in
this
course,
you
will
complete
three
reflection
papers
on
our
symposium-­‐eligible
speaking
events.

Two
of
these
reflections
should
come
after
you
listen
to
“symposium-­‐eligible”
episodes
of
COMMPENDIUM,
our
course-­‐podcast.

The
third
reflection
will
require
you
to
attend/view
a
“live
symposium
event”
–
live
events
will
take
place
later
in
the
semester
and
be
announced
in
class.

Each
reflection
is
worth
50
points
(5%)
in
the
course.

See
the
course
syllabus
for
complete
details
and
policies
about
these
assignments.

For
each
reflection:
• You
will
write
a
2-­‐3
page
paper
(double-­‐spaced,
12-­‐point
Times
New
Roman
font,
1-­‐inch
margins).

• You
will
submit
the
paper
via
HuskyCT,
under
your
discussion
section’s
page.

Each
symposium
event
will
have
its
own
assignment.

All
papers
will
be
submitted
through
SafeAssign.

The
assignment
will
be
due
at
11:59
PM
seven
days
after
the
podcast
is
posted
or
the
live
event
is
held.

o Late
submissions
will
be
accepted
for
an
additional
24
hours
after
the
deadline.

Any
late
submission
will
be
graded
with
an
automatic
15-­‐point
deduction.

Once
the
late
period
has
passed,
you
cannot
reflect
on
that
specific
podcast
or
live
event
for
credit.

How
to
structure
your
reflection
paper:
• Summarize
the
podcast
or
lecture
you’ve
chosen.

You
should
talk
briefly
about
who
was
interviewed,
their
background,
the
topics
they’ve
covered,
and
some
of
the
ideas
that
they
have
put
forward.

For
Podcast
interviews
with
some
personal
conversation,
try
to
focus
this
summary
on
the
communication
and
research
material
discussed.

If
the
podcast
or
lecture
has
supplemental
material
(e.g.
from
Professor
Stifano
but
not
from
the
guest/speaker)
you
can
mention
this
as
well.
This
summary
should
show
that
you’ve
listened
to
the
podcast/lecture
in
its
entirety
and
identified
the
key
points
and
main
ideas.

You
should
try
to
limit
your
summary
to
one
paragraph.

• Second,
identify
which
aspects
of
this
conversation
(or
lecture)
you
think
were
most
important.

Talk
about
how
these
ideas
impact
communication,
and
how
they
impact
our
daily
lives.

Use
this
as
an
opportunity
to
think
about
your
own
communication
and
interactions
and
connect
it
to
the
material
discussed
in
the
podcast/lecture.

This
section
should
range
from
1-­‐2
paragraphs.
• Third,
what
questions
does
this
conversation
(or
lecture)
raise
for
you?

Talk
in
some
detail
about
what
other
things
you’d
like
to
understand
about
this
topic,
and
what
questions
you’d
like
to
ask
the
speaker/guest.

Why
did
you
select
these
questions?

Is
there
anything
else
you’d
like
to
mention
about
this
topic?

This
section
should
range
from
1-­‐2
paragraphs.
• Finally,
what
were
your
personal
impressions
of
the
Podcast/Speaker?

Did
you
like
or
dislike
this
event?

Did
you
like
or
dislike
the
ideas
and
concepts
put
forward?

Why?

Give
reasons
for
your
opinion.
Be
honest.

This
section
should
be
limited
to
1
paragraph.
