MAILING LISTS

Jennifer, I require my teams to support their decisions with facts from 
research or the textbook. I also require them to associate their 
decisions with one of the major theories of the discipline. This is what 
I grade them on. They also share some of their facts and theories with 
the class during the fishbowl (executive council) discussion.
