 For next week's class (1/24), please read chapters 1-3 in the IB Extended Essay book (pp1-21).  In class, Ms. Durrett will present an overview of the EE and get you started on the first step: brainstorming your proposed subject areas.  Bring thoughts and questions.  Bring your book, too.

Also, next week you will present an overview of what you learned through interviewing your chosen person about his/her own research project, so come with your notes and be prepared to synthesize your conversation and reflections.
