Discuss and show your ability to engage with it in a philosophical way

For each of the four papers you will show understanding of something that we discussed and show your ability to engage with it in a philosophical way. These short papers will be approximately 2 double spaced pages in length (700 words).

Make sure to have a goal, state it clearly, show understanding of the related argument, and support your claim.

Engaging with the argument is the priority here. Show me that you’ve thought about the argument and done something with it in the best way that you can. There are any number of ways that you can approach this. come talk to me if you are unsure. We will talk about this at length in class.

You will be evaluated on depth of engagement, organization, understanding, clarity, and original thought.
