Use the numbering scheme provided in your responses to clearly indicate to which question your are responding.
All information needed to respond comes from your text book readings, provided supplemental resources, and, in some cases, information provided in the Discussion assignment, itself. Unless otherwise noted, do not consult outside resources to shape your answers. Answer questions using only the material you read in the assigned readings, and provided supplemental resources, and your own personal knowledge/experience/opinions. I want to know your thoughts and ideas. Evidence of the use of outside sources beyond the approved resources will result in a zero on the assignment.
