You will first pick one topic from the options below. Topics correspond with sections of Chapter 4 of the textbook. Once you have decided on your topic, post a discussion forum response indicating the topic you choose. I prefer that students do not do the same topic as a classmate, so it will be on a first-come, first-serve basis. Please check the discussion forum to make sure your topic has not already been claime.
