Note:
Please expand your thoughts with lesson answers and use additional academic quality outside resources in addition to the assigned textbook and cite directly where the information comes from. That applies to each response for each question.
Please specify the writing requirements as the sample written assignment which I believe to
1) "go beyond the call of the question" and 2) use a wide variety of academic quality sources to support the answers given.
Please attempt to use more academic journals in your reference citations. Websites are great for additional information, but graduate level studies call for graduate level sources...such as peer reviewed journals.
