Each student is asked to post questions or short comments for discussion on our discussion group on Canvas by midnight before the relevant class. These can be questions of clarification or critical comments. The postings are not designed to test you, but rather, to enable you to organize your thoughts and prompt some critical reflection on each reading.  Please use your name as the title for your posting.
