GenDoc Study Group

Panelists will read the chapter and submit homework by noon on Monday before a study group session. Viewers may complete homework assignments, though priority will be given to discussion of panel participant’s submissions. Please reference the syllabus and include your name at the top of each homework assignment. Post homework in a blog or public Google Doc and post the link in the hangout for the appropriate chapter’s study group session. Also take care to observe the book’s copyright restrictions. DearMYRTLE will serve as the opinionated moderator.
