The goal is to assess your depth of engagement with the texts, so be sure to use courses texts only to answer the questions (do not base your answers on the slides, and do not use outside materials). Wherever relevant use multiple class sources, citing them with in-text citations as needed (e.g. Williams, 2014). This is an open book exam, and you should paraphrase your responses (don’t use too many quotes). No reference list is needed.
