Dear students, Today you will continue with your social issues survey. You should make a presentation on your cell phone which includes a graph. (You will not be presenting in front of the class, so you should make sure that your presentation file can be viewed on your cell phone). You will present to several pairs of students today. 1) Introduce your question explaining why you chose that question. 2) Show your graph and explain it. 3) Give reasons why some students agreed with the question. 4) Give reasons why others disagreed with the question. 5) Summarize with a personal comment about your class responses to your question. When you have finished, upload your file to the private blog. Kind regards, Chris Elvin
