Unit Two Talk It Over

Okay, everyone... so far, so good! Now, re-read the postings so far and continue the conversation.

• Did somebody else say something that you agree with? Tell us why.
• Did somebody trigger another idea or question that you have? Tell us what it is.
• Did somebody else say something that you can connect to
  --your own life or experience?
  --what you've already learned from the course?
  --something that you learned through another course or other reading?

Tell us about it.
