Contributor Comments: I completed the activity and submitted my answers, Amy. I LOVED that this assignment was all online, including the submission process. What an awesome way to integrate technology into your assignment. Just one heads up thing I found - in the assignment where it lists the categories we have to find, the word 'name' is spelled wrong. Great instructional activity!
