Winter Quarter Current Event Presentations

During the Winter Quarter, students will be responsible for the long period's current event talks.  This will be factored into your Harkness participation grade, as you teach a mini-lesson and lead a discussion in class.  Using your school email, you may find it helpful to create a Google Alert for your country and/or your country's relationship with the European Union.  This will mean that relevant articles will be sent to you directly.
