Today we began talking about ethical issues. This concept will be important as we read All My Sons, and as you write your research paper. Your assignment for Friday is to complete the SIRS grid (available on Edline) and choose your paper topic. SIRS will provide you with many possible topics, or you may come up with one on your own. In any case, I will need to approve your topic, so as soon as you have an idea, you may want to share it with me.
You may access the SIRS grid on Edline; there is also a link to SIRS on the sidebar of our class's Edline page. This is another link to SIRS. If for some reason these links do not work, try going to the Edina High School website. Once there, click on Academics, then Media Center. If you scroll down, you will see SIRS under the heading of Online Databases. You will need the EHS password to get into the database (password is found at the top of the SIRS grid sheet on Edline).
It will be wonderful if you find a topic about which you are truly enthusiastic. Even more important, however, may be whether or not you can investigate two sides to the issue, and find credible research to support a position.
Good Luck!
