Assignment 1.7 Discussion Prompts 15 points Pace yourself - complete 2 assignments/week. Last due date for full credit is 9/10* (11:45 pm)
This week I present you with two articles about the British Period in India. Your assignment is to listen to the 1.7 lecture and then read these two articles. Click on the images to open the articles. Read the discussion prompts below each article and choose ONE to write a 150-175 word essay relating to the article you have chosen. The assignment is designed to make you relate what you learned in the lecture to what the authors discuss in these articles. You may use short quotes, but I am more interested in your words and thoughts about the article. Once you are happy with your essay, go to our Moodle page and use the Turnitin link under Assignment 1.7 to turn in your essay.
*I will accept late assignments for Unit One until 11:45 pm on Sunday, September 17th with a late penalty/ assignment. The Unit closes on 9/17.
