Micro Writing Assignment 2:
Questions about Texts

Professor Clarence Uher


Assignment: Write three study questions for the Manifesto of the Communist Party. Your questions can focus on any aspect of the Manifesto that you find important. The purpose of a study question is to help a reader extract important terms, concepts, arguments, ideas, etc., from a text. You should be writing your questions with a purpose of guidance in mind. I will be selecting a number of questions from those submitted. We will use the selected questions in class to generate discussion on the Manifesto. Purpose: Writing a good study question requires a comprehensive understanding of the subject. The question is intended to guide the reader to, and through, important aspects of a text. In order to guide others, one must have knowledge of the territory they navigate. Your study questions should reflect your depth of understanding of the Manifesto of the Communist Party. Due Date: Wednesday, March 12,- 1997. (By 5:00 P.M.)
