Writing assignment prompt (all questions must be answered):

The writing assignment is worth 5% of your final grade. Your response/essay should at least 2 double-spaced pages, one-inch margins. Your essay is meant to be analytical, not opinionated. I care less about your opinion and more about your using the course materials and lectures to answer the questions posed. Your grammar and spelling affect the clarity of your ideas, thus correct spelling and grammar are required in this assignment.
