I did ask you to review these items on Monday so this is hopefully your second run through. 

​

If you have any questions, now is the time to ask!

FYS Grouping & Workshop 

By now, you should already be grouped. Get into these groups and work on this handout. Please give this some thought! After you have worked on this, submit this to the Blackboard Discussion forum: FYS Team Plan. 

​

Please work as a TEAM! I want to see you all do good but I will be grading your FYS individually!

Workshop

Use the rest of class time to work on research, work in groups, discuss ideas, ask questions, etc.

Please be putting in the effort to do the research justice. You do basic researching, your project will be basic!
