Part 1:
Summarizing is
a skill that all students should master. Not only, students summarize lectures
every single, but summarizing is extremely important for co-150 Class to evaluate
author writings and introduce the main points to the reader. Moreover, thinking
critically is important to make me look at things from different prospective
instead of seeing half of the picture thinking that I am seeing everything.
Critical thinking both in life and writing made me understand other people
opinion thoughts, which made me a better writer and society member. For
example, In Davis article “Should college Athletes be paid? Why they are
already.” Strickler Tweeted “It's unnecessary to pay college athletes who
already have scholarships. Their edu being paid for should be enough
compensation.” In this Tweet Strickler is saying that athletes do not need to
be paid when they are already having scholarships. On the other hand, I had the
total opposite opinion and I believed that athletes must be paid. However, critical
thinking made me understand people who stand against spending money on student
athletes when they are already having scholarship, which I agree with. Furthermore,
in class we discussed this topic and most of my class mates agreed that
athletes are being paid a lot money and causing financial load on the universities
budget.

Myths about distance education” Published in The Chronicle of Higher Education.
Gilman is an academic librarian at Yale University and taught online courses
for many library schools since 2002. The author Todd Gliman explains all the
misunderstanding and confusion about online teaching. Gilman support his thesis by stating that preparation
is the key to a successful class regardless, whether it is an online or face to
face class. Gliman adds, that having the skills to be successful such as, responsibility
and initiative is what makes any class good. Furthermore, Gilman stated that “Can
you imagine a course in a traditional classroom in which every student
participates in every discussion and gets graded specifically for his or her
comments”
