03.03 - Volcanology Debrief, Roots, Source Credibility Intro

At the beginning of class today, table groups discussed their responses to the volcanology post-reading questions. We took some time to discuss these responses as a class.

Next, we began work with the set 13 roots and prefixes. During this time, I met individually with people to review the goals that they created yesterday.

In the last part of class, we reviewed the overall work for the future exploration project, the questions we will be researching as we start work on section one, and then talked a bit about ways people to know to determine source reliability when doing research. We will work with this tomorrow more formally.
