Your Thing

Well, there was once a song that said, "It's Your Thing, Do What You Wanna Do, I Can't Tell You, Who to Sock it To." This exercise, (besides being part of a song), allows you to engage in a myriad of activities that don’t require you to go through the traditional exercise of memorizing numerous facts and concepts to pass tests. The additional 20 pts. (or more) could consist of your commentary on movies, web materials, books, events, even personal experiences. Your commentary, for those of you who like writing, would amount to a few paragraphs or an outline. For others of a more talkative nature, just come bother me and we can have a brief conversation, of you can volunteer to speak to the class for a few minutes on "YOUR THING." I would recommend you do "YOUR THING" while we are on a particular module, but I will give you a grace period of up to a week after the completion of a module. Also, consider your text as a very handy source for "YOUR THING."
