PROMPT: Write a 400-word response on the reading by Simon Frith. You can choose any relevant topic from this reading to organize your response. You can also choose to respond to questions from the reading guide as a specific prompt.
In general, you should focus your writing in two equally weighted ways: (1) DESCRIBE the topic/issue that you will respond to from Frith’s perspective. What is Frith’s logic? How does he come to these conclusions? What evidence is he using to make this argument? (2) RESPOND to this topic/issue by evaluating Frith’s perspective. What are the weak and strong points of his argument? Are there other examples that you can think of which disprove, prove, or supplement his logic? How does Frith’s perspective challenge your own thinking?
