Weekly discussion questions will help students prepare for the APES exam by giving them sample free-response questions. Each week you will be required to answer several discussion questions pertaining to a different environmental topic. Your responses must be posted as comments on the blog by 11:59pm on the due date posted on Homework Hero. We will also take class time to discuss the topic and appropriate responses. These questions should be answered independently, as they will be counted as part of your homework grade.

Instructions for posting follow-up comments: After all students have posted individual responses, each student will be required to make a follow-up posting to include constructive comments on other responses and/or changes you would make to your original posting based on other student's responses you have read. The purpose of this activity is to collectively and constructively come up with the best possible response for each question.
