Assignment for this week:
What do you think are the three most important skills for the 21st century? Why? How is SWUIC and our class, Man and Society, preparing you for your future career and role as a citizen of the 21st century?
Add a short summary of the readings as well.
Make sure to write at least 250 words and include specific references (by quoting specific lines) from the two texts as well as outside sources (please provide the links to these sources if you do use such sources). Do not plagiarize. Think carefully about what you want to say and take some time to plan your answer before you post anything. The quality of your writing and ideas are very important.
After the deadline (Tuesday,September 29,2015 at noon), come back and read at least two other postings from your friends and add your own comments, suggestions and questions. These additional posts are due before class on Thursday, September October1,2015.
