In the previous lesson they identified the importance of academic honesty and what plagiarism looks like. They learned to use their own words without changing the meaning.

The first mentor meetings took place today and the remaining groups are to meet with their mentor sometime tomorrow. The class began writing the central idea for the exhibition.
For homework students should get some books from the library. Please disregard if you already have your books. Also, you should be discussing the French component and starting to think about your lines of inquiry (what will you study specifically). For example, an inquiry into the education available to boys and girls in different countries (Canada vs. India).
The final task is to continue to brainstorm ideas, you may have had new inspirations over the past few days.
Central idea writing will continue tomorrow.
