Discuss the databases that you tried, any problems that you encountered, and how you overcame challenges to complete your draft), and Draft of Expanded Definition Project (print one copy, which we will use for peer review as we had done for the Article Summary Project. Even if you haven’t completed the whole project, print one copy of what you were able to complete before class).
