Discussion leader

Your job is to develop one strong discussion question (one question per
chapter) for your group members.

Your task is to help people talk over the big ideas in the reading and to share reactions to the text.

Dont worry about the small details; your discussion question should focus on main ideas. Be prepared with your own brief answer to your question.

You will need to post one discussion question (per chapter) and then reply to your own post to
provide your answer to the question.
