Public opinion and political communication
Do a reading response based on the readings I will upload later. Reading responses are a very briefly summary of the readings which must include your reaction to the reading, Critical engagement with the theoretical argument and with empirical evidence and Original thought only: no excerpts from other people’s work or regurgitation of material found on google.
Do not use other sources apart from the readings I will later upload. However, reading responses are not just simply a summary of the readings. Beyond demonstrating that you did the reading, I expect you to engage critically with the material. You might want to examine the analytical strength of the argument, examine the way that the arguments by different authors fit together, or consider whether the argument is applicable to the country that you are most familiar with. Reading responses should not exceed two pages double spaced. Plagiarism from online or printed sources will not be tolerated.. Most of the readings are related to each other, so when wirting the reading response, could you please compare and contrast what each author says in each reading plesae??? thank you. Also please mention what reading you are talking about and what authors, as well as giving examples from the readings.
VERY IMPORTANT: I EXPECT MORE THAN A SUMMARY OF THE READINGS, I NEED EVIDENCE OF CRITICAL ENGAGEMENT, AND MY OWN THOUGHTS AND VIEWS AND PERSPECTIVES. MY REACTION TO THE READINGS. CRITICAL ENGAMENT! I NEED TO ANALYSE THE READINGS! Please read the readings that I have uploaded

4) Intro Paragraph: Must have an introductory paragraph which contains the following elements, in ANY ODER that you feel comfortable with:
a. The sell: A sentence or two that convinces the reader that the paper is addressing and important topic (i.e. make the reader care about your paper). Example: “poverty rates, as baker (2011) has shown, are rising dramatically in Canada, it is important, then, to explore the causes of poverty in this country.”

Theses Statement: A strong stance that you will be arguing with regards to the topic – often contains the word “THAT.” Example: “I will ague THAT poverty in Canada is caused by a lack of opportunity available to those with lower incomes” (Yes, you will be giving away the ending of your paper here).

Everything must be cited except:
a. Your topic sentence: Since this is just a statement of what you want to explore. You also may not need to cite topic sentences of each paragraph if they are just your indication of the content of the paragraph to follow (you will have to use your common sense to decide when a topic sentence needs a citation and when it doesn’t)..
b. Your thesis sentence: Since this is by definition YOUR FINDING after critically considering all information..
c. Your Conclusion: The conclusion paragraph should be a summary of your entire paper and especially your findings. NO NEW INFORMATION should appear. Therefore there should be no need to cite anything. It is your own very concise summation of the issue.

parts of your prospective plan:
(Explanation on each part will be in Moyes feasibility files
in module document (Blackboard)
**** Around 300 words for each part
so 600 in total*****
