Locate a recent (within the past four months) news article on a debated issue (eg. a court case). Read and summarize the issue, orally in front of the class or on paper. Explain how (if!) specificity of the law or debated issue could clear up the debate.
Would clearer explanations allow for less debate?
How does this relate to geometry/ why is this project listed for chapter two?
Completing this project requires:
1. Copy of the news article in review.
2. Summary of the issue (presented orally to the class or written and turned in.)
3. Clarification "suggestions" - noting how (or why not) specificities would reduce debatable information and/or clarify the issue.
4. Connection to geometry - How does this relate to geometry/ why is this project listed for chapter two?
5. If written, the project must follow correct grammar, punctuation, and spelling guidelines as presented in English classes. If presented orally, presentation should last 2-4 minutes.
