Reading Assignment Guidelines:
Answers should be in complete sentences with proper grammar and punctuation.
Answers should be in your own words, not quotes. If you quote something, you need to identify it as a quote and then explain the quote.
The answers should be complete explanations; none of these should be answered with less than a complete paragraph.
My expectation is that carefully reading these materials and answering these questions should take roughly 3-4 hours of work.
