Guidelines

Your job is to inform and advise--all in 75 to 100 words. Readers will want to know what book you read, who wrote it and what the book was about. They will also want to know if they should take the time to read the book.

Start your review with up to 5 ⧈'s (or whatever electronic media-ish symbol you can find) and a "Required Reading" "Recommended but not Required" or "Don't Bother" (so a Don't Bother book would have one symbol, a recommended book would have 2 or 3 symbols and a "required reading" would have 4 or 5 symbols.

Finally, don't forget the label. The label is the "subject area" of the book--advertising ethics, digital divide, journalism ethics, and so forth.

Thanks for your efforts in furthering the cause of media ethics!

I am a bit confused as to what this assignment entails.

Is this the book review or is this some other assignment.

Also, I don't know how to use the symbols.
