Hand in a one page in-depth reflection comparing the five charters discussed in class.  You can discuss the importance of them, various details that struck you, controversial topics that arose from your discussions or any other topic that you find relevant.  The expectation is that your ideas are well thought-out, organized and expressed using good writing skills.  Don't just dump a stream of consciousness type of writing.  Bonus marks to an actual plan that you use to organize your ideas before you start writing.  You can write or type but you must check spelling and other conventions.  Remember - if you want people to listen to your ideas they will be more likely to think you are intelligent if you spell correctly!  Length 250 words.

P.S. I humbly admit I spell checked this and it had three errors.  There is no shame in spellchecking.
