Reminder

After the mid-term reading exam (Overpopulation), I gave you a handout with two questions to blog about. It's been almost two weeks, and so far, only Ivy posted something. I know you were busy with your research papers, but now, it's the time to bring your blogs up to date. Don't forget to comment on your classmates' posts as well.

Another blogging assignment is to share your experience about doing the research paper. You may use the questions that you talked about this morning in Marley's class as the guidelines.

Please do them both before we start the Textbook project on Friday.

Those 5% might mean a lot at the end!

Public lecture presentations

As you can see from Marley's blog, we will have the two exams on Wednesday and Thursday, so Tuesday should be an"easy" day. However, it would be very good if we can fit in some lecture presentations so you get over with them and really start concentrating on your research papers.

So, as we said, presentations should be 15-20 minutes long (per group), +5 minutes for questions. Follow the evalutation sheet, and divide among yourselves who is doing what. The written report is 1.5-2 pages long.

I want groups that could be ready for Tuesday to leave a comment on my blog so I know what to plan for Tuesday.

By the way, your reactions to the happiness unit and love lecture are nice, inspiring and insightful. And your comments to your friends' reactions. Great blogging!!!
