I asked students to take this quiz for the week one written assignment.
- Click here for it.
It's meant to get students to think about which issues are currently topical, where they might stand on them, and find out which candidates they should consider supporting as a result. I like that the quiz also asks what priority they give to the issue, as well as background info on the issue itself, hopefully that'll help us all become more knowledgeable about them - that'll give us some items to focus on in class. I'll use it to figure out which news stories to highlight as well.
Later this week, I'll compile results so we'll get a sense about which candidates students are - or should - support in the current campaign,
