Write a Reading Response about the following readings-
1. A Theory of Fun for Game Design by Raph Koster.
Reading Response is designed to allow students the opportunity to reflect on a selected course reading and to put into their own words a summary of that reading.
A summary is essentially an attempt to answer the "about" question: "What was the reading about?" Or "What was the author trying to communicate?" It is a condensed version of a larger reading with an eye toward identifying the main idea (or ideas) of a reading and pointing to the relevant details of the work. [Note: summaries are about the text and its author, not about the summarizer's opinions].
A general 8-part process for writing a summary includes:
Skim the text -get a general feel for the reading (what are its headings, subheadings, organizational patterns, etc.)
Read the work - take notes and highlight the text, break it down into divisions that make sense to you as a reader, and write down the author's main points for each section (and overall work)
Outline the article - main points/sections, supporting points, etc.
Start writing - let readers know upfront what text you are responding to and what you are attempting to do in this response.
Give the big picture - Provide a guiding statement for the whole piece (the general "what was this about" kind of indication).
Work through your divisions and/or the outline to articulate the frame of the work and its supporting claims or thoughts.
Conclude with a new articulation of the big picture, but as influenced by supporting points.
Revise, Rethink, and Proof Read - make sure your prose works together, check all information and arguments for accuracy.
Students need to limit their use of quotations from the text to no more than 1 quotation.
