Hot Topics (our new form of blogging)

This week rather than read at home, you'll be reading in the class.

Instead you'll choose one hot topic to investigate. You will identify at least six sources relating to the topic. You will evaluate each in terms of its audience, purpose, etc. as well as its veracity. In the end, you will write a blog entry in which you take your own position, while using hyperlinks to summarize, incorporate or refute all of your six sources.

If you want to see a professional version of this, return to the Charlie Hebdo article from Slate we read some time ago.

Your first of these hot topic blogs will be due this Friday or Monday.
