Criteria for Success:
• The initial post completely and clearly addresses all parts of the prompt in a way that is aligned with class content.
• I expect that you will use complete sentences with proper grammar. This isn't an essay, but it is a formal assignment, so you want to take the time to turn in a polished finished product.
• I expect that you will use evidence from the podcast to provide answers that show me what you learned.
• I want you to try to think beyond what is explicitly said in the podcast. Connect this material to the things that we discuss in context videos.
• I expect you to show me you're thinking. I have heard this podcast many times, so I know what it says, but I don't know what you are thinking. I don't know how you are processing the information. Give me a little insight into your intellectual world.
