Rethinking Globalization

Rethinking Globalization

Critical Response 1:
Read Section II of the Rethinking Globalization Text, pgs. 31-56.
As you read, make notes about your reactions, assumptions, implications, arguments, questions (see
prompts in instructions)
The idea of personal responses are to engage in thoughtful internal dialogue about the idea of global
issues and education. You should attempt, in your understanding of the readings to get “underneath”
what you read in order to understand the social, political, and cultural underpinnings of the issues.
Reading critically involves more than understanding the words or liking or disliking the texts; critical
reading requires reflection.
Some prompts are helpful for how you should approach these assignments. As you consider your
reflections, think about these questions: (a) what are the texts’ assumptions about the phenomena being
discussed? (b) What are the implications of the assumptions and/or the arguments? (c) What is at stake
in the texts arguments for the authors and for you? (d) Who (or what) are the authors arguing for or
against? (e) How do the authors construct and articulate their arguments? (f) How do the texts “fit” (or not
fit) in relation to your own thought and practice? (g) What questions did you find yourself asking after
doing the reading? Please do not simply summarize the readings.
Write your critical response connecting the content from the text with your responses to the
prompts.
Your response should be written in a narrative form that is evident of engaging with the
content and reflection.
