8. When we discuss this assignment in class, you need to choose whom you want to work with or if you want to work alone. By the end of the class, a facilitator for each group will write down the names of peers working on the paper together and which texts you are choosing to write about. If you are doing the assignment alone, simply write your name and state you will be doing the essay alone.
