Reaction Paper (child abuse readings): In your opinion, and based on the readings, why is child abuse so harmful? In your answer, try to speak to outcomes of abuse, prevalence of it, timing, etc.
- Reaction papers allow you to provide your INFORMED opinion to a stated question. Being “informed” means that you formulate your reaction to the question based on the information you have read over the week or throughout the course – this means that relevant literature/readings from the course should be cited throughout your reaction paper.
- You must find a way to incorporate at least 4 of the readings for that week(s) into your reaction paper – failure to do so will result in lost points.
- Papers must be single-spaced, Times New Roman, 11 or 12 point font with one-inch margins. Maximum length is 2 pages of text, excluding references.
- See the grading rubric below to understand how papers will be evaluated
