Seminar Preparation

In this module we use a forum where nominated students pose 2-3 questions to their peers and then lead the seminar discussion on the issues raised. In addition to preparing responses to the forum questions, you will be expected to have read the primary text carefully as well as the relevant sections in Inventing America.
