3 page Essay

 Directions from teacher: “I would like you to write an essay in response to the passage from Roger Schank that appears below.  Your essay should focus on an idea of your own in response to Schank’s passage.  Please state your idea clearly and develop 2 or 3 examples to support it.  The essay should be three pages long and formatted according to the specifications on the syllabus.  You may use any of our readings as examples to explain your idea.  You may also refer to your experiences of reading these stories if they help you to explain your idea more clearly.Other personal experiences are fine as well.

Here is the prompt:

“We really cannot learn from other people’s stories. In getting reminded of our own stories, ones which of course have more poignancy and more rich detail than the ones we are hearing, we tend to get distracted into thinking more about what happened to us.”

 — Roger Schank

I will upload a file of a reading example to refer to.
