Listen to three Podcasts and comment substantially on each one, including praise (a compliment), polish (a suggestion), and a question that occurred to you as you listened.
Example: Ms. Hoetz, I really liked how you included a personal story as your example for the state's perspective. (Praise) However, I was a little confused about how a class action lawsuit works. Maybe you could have explained that in more detail. (Polish) Do you think that this problem has been solved today? I saw an article about how we are returning to segregated schools and wonder if that disproves both sides on this issue. Homework:
