As stated in the syllabus, in groups of 2-3 you will lead a class discussion on the readings.

Due: Monday before the designated class

You need to create a Google document(s) showing how you plan to lead the discussion. It needs to be shared with ksm@cs.duke.edu no later than Monday night so Prof. Stephens-Martinez can provide comments on Tuesday.

Suggested Discussion Structure

1. Present one of the topics in the readings
2. Ask a series of questions, where questions are introduced one at a time, discussed in small groups, and each group reports back their discussion
   1. Potential questions:
      1. What stood out the most (or top 3) to you from the reading/topic?
      2. What is an implication of this reading?
      3. What question do you have about the reading?
      4. What did this reading leave you to wonder about?
3. Repeat from 1

Deliverable(s)

1. Presentation
   1. What you will screen share or project to the rest of the class.
   2. When we are in person, Prof. Stephens-Martinez can project for you so that you do not need to make sure your laptop is compatible with the projector.
2. Your lesson plan
   1. You must provide your lesson plan in a Google doc if your presentation is not a Google slide deck so Prof. Stephens-Matinez can easily directly comment on your plan.
   2. It must contain:
      1. What activities the class will do
      2. What questions the class will discuss
      3. A timeline with time estimates for each activity
