A. Provide a summary analysis of the critical issues highlight in the article (preferably not more than half-page summary).

B. Answer the specific questions associated with EACH UNIT.

4. Please keep the following in mind: 1. Make sure to include concepts from the readings in the textbook 2. Use own words and sentences 3. Absolutely no copying and pasting from other sources. 4. This is NOT a group project! Everyone MUST work individually since we are
