Honors/AP Article Summaries

Each week, honors/AP students will write a 250-word summary of an assigned reading, related to class discussion. This summary should NOT include any long quotes from the article; rather, it should be a summary of the main points and organized into paragraphs based on the article's development.

Students must be careful not to plagiarize the article, and can avoid this by attributing any unique wording or ideas to the article's author. The form used for citation is on the site referred to often in class, Research and Documentation Online - specifically the site's section on MLA In-Text Citations.

The first set of articles follows:
Please type this assignment, and format according to MLA.
