Library Rm E

Two tasks to complete by the end of the day:

Submit your hard copy and digital copy (turnitin.com) of AP Synthesis Project

With your partner, complete the following:


In preparation for Monday, create a study guide with three original and meaningful discussion questions (one per chapter) for chapters 10-12. (6 points possible; if working with a partner, please put both students names on your entry) Submit them to the turnitin.com discussion board (BBF ch 10-12 discussion) by the end of class. In your question, clearly label the page # and chapter where the quote came from. By Monday, respond online to one posted question for each chapter (each of you should respond online to three questions total...you may respond to question posted by students in either period 7 or 8, whichever you have access to, even if they are not in your class presently.)

Below are some examples of good discussion questions:
 

On page 112 in chapter 9, does Asha have a point when she argues that something isn’t wrong if the powerful people say that it’s right? How does constant exposure to corruption change a person’s internal understanding of right and wrong?

In chapter 9, shortly before Abdul is sent to juvenile jail, a major newspaper runs a story about the facility headlined: “Dongri Home is a Living Hell.” Abdul’s experience of Dongri is more complex, though. How does being wrenched away from his work responsibilities at Annawadi change his understandings of the hardships of other people? Are terms like liberty and freedom understood differently by people who live in different conditions?
