HUM 389: Reading Reflection Prompt for:
“Multiculturalism in Visual Art: The Great Wall of L.A.” (use this for your “title” line)
Assigned Content: BR, CP 93, and short video
Prompt: In your 2-4 page-reflection (2 full pages minimum using required formatting, with 3-4 pages often required for above-average scores), address each of the following three areas below. When you quote from the readings, “do it like this” (CP/BR page number goes here).
First (BEFORE going on to the CP page and the video) (minimum of one full page): Respond to/reflect upon specific points from various parts of the Blackboard Reading file, being sure to reflect your completion of the entire file. Remember that “responding” is not equivalent to merely summarizing—see question #2-#6 on CP page 11. Incorporate and respond to/reflect upon several specific quotes from the BR text and several specific panel images from the ones included in the BR (zooming in/enlarging the images to notice specific visual elements in those images).
Then: (minimum of one full page) What did CP 93 and the video add to the introduction to the Great Wall found in the BR and what further questions are raised for you by this additional content (and in what ways/how so)? Incorporate and reflect upon/respond to several specific quotes from the video and at least one from the CP page . When you quote from the video “do it like this” (video time marker goes here)
