PROCEDURE

INTRODUCTION (Day 1)
At the end of this session, the students should be able to:
a. Identify the different kinds of reaction paper;
b. Appreciate craftsmanship of writing a review; and
c. Write an insightful reaction paper on social issue or common experience.

Writing is hard, simply because one hopes to write using the best possible words to articulate the best possible thoughts in the most creative
way imaginable. Despite this fact, writing a reaction paper seems not that different from a status message in Facebook. In practice, the reaction paper is an
informed and insightful perspective on art, popular culture, and the world. Think about the millions of voices clamoring to be heard and read on the Internet, and
you come to know how to deal with the challenge of sounding original and insightful. In the end, the reaction paper is a reasoned and reasonable response to the
world; the best response can either be intelligent, humorous, wise, or all of the above.
MOTIVATION
REACTION PAPER will be defined by the students based from their perception through a semantic web.

format to bring in other insights, such as interviews, dramatization of the event, news footage, and the like. Make sure that at the end of the talk show, the societal relevance of your
