Today, I went over the next writing assignment: the editorial. I provided the due date (Friday at the end of class), and discussed how to use the sources supplied. I also gave you the following context:
You are an Member of Parliament. You have been asked to vote on an issue. Prior to this, you have been asked to share your opinion on the issue with the rest of the MPs. This "sharing" will also be seen by your constituents. You have to have an opinion, and you want to get the other MPs to agree, but you don't want to offend your constituents.
You will then examine your source material and organize a written response in which you state your position and support it. I do have notes for this class. If you were not here, they are in your portfolio.
