Part Two

Part two will be an essay question. Marking will based on your ability to support your position and the number of arguments you can muster in favor of the position you take on the question. The essay should show an ability to think critically and to reflect on the content of the course.

Incorrect grammar and spelling will not cause any deductions, but may interfere with the clarity of your arguments.
