Gladwell Quiz 1

Gladwell Quiz 1

Q Mind-map for your ideas for Writing Assignment 1 (WA1). Draw your mind-map on a piece of paper using pencil or use your own personal Google Jamboard. Don't get fancy with colors or images. Make sure your writing is clear because your classmates and I will need to be able to read your map. Have enough ideas for a 3-4 paragraph essay. Try to find support for your points from Gladwell, the articles we read for Thursday for homework on deliberate practice, or from something you find on OneSearch. Try. If you are having problems, it's okay. The emphasis here is on try. Then, take a photo of your mind-map (If you used Jamboard take a screenshot or save it as a PDF). Click on "Insert" and "Image" or on the "image icon" in the posting menu to insert an image. You might need to see the 1-minute video, by Sally Baldwin, embedded here on how to put an image into a Canvas Discussion.
