Write a 250-word response to the 3 questions below. You do not need to use direct quotations or citations, or outside sources. Use your OWN words. You can write in the first person or not. Your answer will be assessed on how well you understand the course material thus far. Please add a new discussion topic when posting your answers, i.e. each student should have their own thread.
Note: it is 250 words for all 3 questions, not 250 words for each question.
