Homework for July 6 class: Going green with solar power

Homework #1 to hand in: Read the article of June 13, 2012 from The New York Times called Betting on the Sun. Before you access the article, think for a minute about what the article might be about.
Then go ahead and print the article off and read it. Write a summary of the article in 3-4 sentences and then write a comment about the article. Make sure to paraphrase when you write your summary - do not copy from the article! Make your comment meaningful. Type your answers and hand in July 6.

Homework #2 for a Group Discussion and to hand in: Find another article from an English newspaper (not a blog or opinion page) on the topic of "going green." There are many articles about alternative energy these days, such as solar, wind, or geothermal power. Try to find an article about one of these.
Print your article in its original form. Prepare a summary of the article in which you begin by saying the title of the article, where it is from and the date it was published. Then say a few short sentences about the article - what is it about? Then ask your group members for their comments. Finally, give your own comment.

Type and print these two homework assignments on separate sheets of paper.
Do not be late for class because you were printing your homework.
