Peer Review: The How and Why in the Common Core
This power point explains to students the importance of peer review and why it should be taken seriously. I find this presentation to be extremely helpful in setting the tone for how I expect students to write and respond to each other. We create a common vocabulary, discuss writing as a process and how, by allowing others to read our work, we can ALWAYS gain a different perspective, whether it is one we agree with or not.

Clifford's "The Ethics of Belief" - Powerpoint Presentation by Dr Frost
Clifford wrote that we are responsible not only for our actions but for our beliefs as well. He uses thought experiments to make his case. Imagine a captain looks at his ship and sees that it is not seaworthy. But then because he didn't want to spend the money, he convinced himself that the ship was seaworthy even though it wasn't. The ship sails and sinks killing everyone on board. Is the captain morally responsible? And if it doesn't sink don't we still hold him accountable? The point is you n
