How to QQC

Quote, Question, and Comment (QQC)

The QQC is an opportunity to reflect on “What strikes you?” about the class readings. Select a quote or section of text from the week’s readings and craft a response that includes the selected quote/section, the questions it raised for you, and any comments or reflections. This is not a time to summarize the text. It is a time to analyze and critique the author’s ideas, to connect them to other ideas, to reflect on what those ideas mean to you, and to use the text as a springboard for extending your own thinking.

The following week, you should respond to at least one person’s post on something that struck you about what they wrote, new questions that have emerged for you, etc. The purpose of the forum is to serve as an archive of your thinking, but more importantly to generate and continue conversations outside of class
