Week 15: Overview and Goals
At this point, I hope you are polishing your Community Problem Project. Feel free to request phone conferences with me during these final days--I'm always happy to give you extra feedback. We are also finishing up Coates this week, and beginning to work on specifying what you will be doing in your Coates Essay. I'll be commenting on your brainstorming ideas from last week soon.
Goals
If we're successful in this module, you will:
- Submit a full-length, properly formatted final draft of the Community Problem Project.
- Finish Coates and participate in a discussion of what conclusions we can come to as we finish his book.
- Make a tentative plan for the Coates Essay, and find two potential research sources that you'll use in that essay.
