In 350 words or more, SUMMARIZE one SPECIFIC current CONTROVERSIAL event or published/broadcast comment that you have seen, heard, or read about on the TV, on the radio, in the newspaper, on the Internet, or during your everyday interactions with people since Oct. 19, 2020. If what you are thinking about posting is older than that, then choose something else that is newer.

Part 1: In 350 words or more, SUMMARIZE one SPECIFIC current CONTROVERSIAL event or published/broadcast comment that you have seen, heard, or read about on the TV, on the radio, in the newspaper, on the Internet, or during your everyday interactions with people since Oct. 19, 2020. If what you are thinking about posting is older than that, then choose something else that is newer.

BEGIN your post with the date and source for your becoming aware of the event/comment. [Example: On the Smithsonian Magazine’s website, I read an Oct. 20, 2020, article written by Kate Keller entitled, First Yellowstone Grizzly Hunt in 40 Years Will Take Place This Fall.” In the article, Keller describes the possible negative effects that trophy hunting this species could create.] Your source can not be dated earlier than Oct. 19, 2020.

REMEMBER that the above example is how you should start your summary; it is not all that you will need to write for your event summary or comment.

Finally, conclude your post with a paragraph that includes your PERSONAL opinion about the event/comment and a thorough explanation for why you feel as you do about it.

Part 2: After posting your event/comment, read and reply to three (3) of your classmates’ event posts by stating your personal opinion about what they have posted and your reason(s) for your opinion.
