You will be writing your paper on the following article:
Braveman P. Egerter S. & Williams D. R. (2011). The social determinants of health: coming of age. Annual Review of Public Health 32 381-398.
Your paper should contain the following sections:
PART 1: Write a synopsis of the article
Use your own words to describe what the essay is about. What is its central thesis or research question? What are its aims or goals? What are its supporting arguments and how do the authors forward that argument?
Be sure to define terms the authors use and provide concrete examples (for instance what are some upstream determinants of health and how do they affect health?)
PART 2: Relate this new reading to at least one other article weve read (WHO CDC Aronowitz Lantz)
What is the connection between that reading and this one?
Be sure to summarize the other reading you are using. It doesnt have to be as detailed as your summary of the new reading but you should write as if the audience has not read the work and needs to be brought up to speed.
PART 3: React to one or more of the issues raised by these readings
How does the information in these articles relate to your own experience or knowledge?
Were the authors arguments convincing? Why or why not?
What would you ask or tell the author if you could?
What did you realize as a result of reading this article?
Make sure to use specific examples and appropriately cited quotations
Tips for a Successful Reaction Paper
Pre-Write! As you are reading the article:
Mark any interesting or confusing passages
Jot down some of your ideas and initial reactions
Use your close reading skills to improve your understanding. Identify the thesis; define key terms; look up words you dont know; outline the article
Organize your thoughts
Write your thesis statement first
Decide on your key points
Develop your key points by adding examples and quotations
Edit!
Read your paper again. Do you have an introduction and conclusion? Does every paragraph have a topic sentence? Did you use supporting examples to illustrate your key points?
Run a spelling and grammar check dont let these issues distract (and lose you points) on an otherwise strong paper
Check your references
