Marine Fired Over Anti-Obama Facebook Posts

A reaction paper is a three part essay that asks you to bring something new to the conversation your class is holding on a specific topic. In this case, we spoke briefly about the dangers of social media posts but tomorrow our discussion will dive deeper given that we will have an entire class who has found something new and interesting to bring to the conversation. Find an article about a true example that either argues/supports/or shows us a totally different side of this topic. Of course, you will need to in-text reference where your information is from including the title of the article, author, website, and date. This information is non-negotiable. If you can't back up your story, this so-called story and your opinion have no value. You'll need to fill readers in on what the article is about so you can use it as a spring board. Once you have provided a brief description of what occurred in this article, now it's time for you to write your 'reaction'. Your reaction is your interpretation of what this article means in the bigger scheme of where we are heading in this crazy world. Basically, the article is just something you use to move to your real point.

The final closing should help spark our class discussion by considering where this could lead to, who else could this effect, what could/should be done about this situation??

There is no late work accepted in the fourth marking period whatsoever. The professionals in the world will agree that if you're incapable of keeping such a simple deadline, you are sending a very, very negative image of what, if anything, you are capable of managing.

Have fun
