You might consider &#8212; for example &#8212; a close reading of one of his episodes, the overall narrative, use of evidence, quality of sources, argument, theory (or lack thereof), or perhaps a topic that emerged in our Monday discussion. Try to keep your own opinion out of your analysis, and instead engage the text on a scholarly rather than personal level.
