This is an opportunity for you to demonstrate your knowledge of both topics.

Your initial discussion post is due by Thursday at 11:59 PM, but the assignment stays open for you to respond to at least two of your classmates by Sunday at 11:59 PM. You must post your discussion before you can view replies made by your classmates.
