"He discusses and outlines some of the problems that we are likely to face."

Thematic, not sequential

"Touretzky begins the article by explaining the background."

1/2 page "Reaction" section (10pt, single spacing, one inch margins).

2 full paragraphs for each summary.

Take care with grammar

"This three situations, invisible abuse, invisible programming values, and invisible complex calculation, where something is done unknown to the user or programmer."

Relate the papers to one another and to the the previous papers in the course.
