(The next assignment (HW#2) will ask you to identify a podcast that relates to your choice, and work out a way to use a selection or portion of it as a source. You may want to start looking around the Unmute Podcast website [https://unmutetalk.podbean.com/ ] to help you narrow your efforts for this assignment as well, if you think it will help focus your efforts and give you some writing ideas.)

Answer the following four questions in a separate document. Hand in your homework via the Assignment page on Canvas.

  1. (a) Identify the topic you believe you will pursue. (b) What is one unsettled question that you have about the topic, which you would like to work out about the issue? Your question should be specific enough to allow for more than one possible answer. It should allow for argumentation.
  1. In what way does the topic you are considering relate to the readings already done for this course? Choose one line or paragraph from one of those readings that relates to what you wrote in (1) above. Explain why it is related to your topic. Make sure you identify the location of the line or paragraph that you relate to your topic.
  1. Looking back at your answers to (1) and (2), what is your hypothesis as to the conclusion you are likely to draw, about your topic? What do you believe that you will contend, and argue for, in your final project?

Minimal answers to this homework should be at least eight clear sentences. Excellent answers to this homework should be no more than one page (300 words).
