Your response must be 300 to 500 words. File must be uploaded as an MS Word document or pdf file by 5 PM on Friday October 5. Please feel free to use information from class or other sources (Google searches and reading information online, reading other articles, etc.). Just do not copy someone else’s writing or ideas verbatim. That is plagiarism. I reserve the right to run written assignments through plagiarism software (e.g. turnitin.com).
