Government Focus Questions – Chapter One

Go here for Chapter One – Principles of Government
Assignment is due on Tuesday October 22.

In an effort to truly gain from classroom discussion, it is essential that you do assigned readings. To encourage you to read, I will provide five focus questions per reading assignment. I expect that you will answer these questions in detail and in your own words. Assignments are worth 50 points. Answers for each question should be at least 100 words in length. Answers which are copied from the book, will receive a zero credit. Assignment is to be done in ink (pencil minus one grade / typed +5%).

I will list all of the Focus Questions for Government below:
