Assignment :
Use the following questions to make an initial post to this week’s discussion board (of at least 200 words).
Write about what you already know regarding the issue you have chosen (see p.284 for additional questions):
⦁ Why does it interest you? What important questions does it raise about your own live or the lives of others around you? What do you hope to achieve in writing about it?
Write about what others have already said about your topic (see p.289 for examples and additional questions)
⦁ What have others said about your topic? What have you learned by listening to other perspectives? What ideas do you want to change? What ideas could you extend further?
Develop your answers to these questions into one or more coherent paragraphs for your initial response.  Practice referring specifically to articles you have found in your research, using summary, paraphrase, or direct quotation.
