Group Assignment #2 (ETXEA) requires the following:

• Bring a prepared one-page (standard size) homework assignment (with copies for everyone in your group plus the instructor) to class for the assigned group discussion; due dates are posted on your syllabus.

• The one-page typed reflection consists of two, typed single-spaced paragraphs; one paragraph for each of the items below. 

• DO NOT read to the others what you wrote; they can read it themselves if they like.  Your task instead is to speak about it so that they'll be interested in reading about it themselves.

• Note that you will be evaluated by the other people in your group--it is to them that you will make your case.
