Before making changes, he seeks feedback from scholars in various subfields of East Asian history through a series of roundtable discussions. For the pre-modern period (Chapters 1-5), he has invited three scholars: Professors Evelyn Rawski, Kiri Paramore, and Lynda Shaffer. Task: Imagine and draft a roundtable discussion in which the three invited scholars offer critical feedback and suggestions regarding the textbook. Professor Holcombe will respond to their comments. Requirements: \u2022 Length: 1000 to 1500 words (excluding footnotes\/endnotes\/in-text citations and title). Points will be deducted for deviations from the word limit. \u2022 Use first-person narration rather than third-person description to convey the scholars\u2019 perspectives. Points will be deducted for not using first-person perspective. \u2022 Articulate each scholar\u2019s perspective, scope, and framework for interpreting East Asia, using specific references from their works to support their feedback and suggestions for revision, as well as their responses to those suggestions. \u2022 Their discussions should critically reflect on the problems and assumptions in the understanding of East Asian history, particularly within the North American context, while keeping student learning outcomes in mind. \u2022 Use only the listed sources. Do NOT consult external published book reviews. Points will be deducted for using unapproved sources. \u2022 Demonstrate engagement with course materials. \u2022 Grading will focus on how accurately you represent each scholar\u2019s main ideas, scope, and perspective. It will also assess your selection and description of evidence, the relevance of that evidence, the clarity of your reasoning, and the critical depth of their communications throughout the discussion. Each scholar\u2019s contribution will be graded separately, with a total of 5 points available for each.
