Guiding Questions

As one of your first contributions to class this year, please write about one of the guiding questions listed below. Your comments will help the class choose one or two ideas to focus our reading, writing, and discussion this semester. In a well-worded paragraph, explain which question interests you the most and why you think it would be a good focus for the class. If you are unable to post your paragraph here, email it to Mr. Sale or, as a last resort, print it out and bring it to class. Post your response by midnight, Thursday, August 20, 2009.
