You will read the case assigned and answer the questions at the end. It should generally take about 3-5 pages (typed and single-spaced please) to adequately answer the questions for each case.

Your analysis will be graded based upon your logical thought, your use of principles from the text (shown in APA citation), and your writing skills.
