Online Readings for Module 4

Instructions

On D2L you will find clickable links to the webpages cited below. It will be easier to use the links on D2L than to try and type out the URLS listed below. I have included them in the Course Packet as insurance (if D2L does down during the semester.) I test the links regularly. You may have to clear your browser’s history and restart the browser if a link does not work. If the link remains broken, please notify me immediately.
