Book Selection

| 57 Comments

There are several options for you to choose from to do your book report. They are: Kite Runner, Mind at Work, Lives on the Boundary, Talent is Overrated, The Happiness Project, Intrinsic Motivation at Work, The Long Walk. You should choose a book that you are genuinely interested in, and consider this an opportunity to read something that you enjoy (even though it is also for a class). You can read reviews and summaries of these books at Amazon.

Each of these books are available at University Book and Supply next to the texts for this course. Many of these books are available at the UNI library and our local Cedar Falls and Waterloo Public Libraries. You may also purchase them at a local book seller like Barnes and Noble in Waterloo, or online at Amazon or other online merchants. Amazon also has digital options for your IPhone, Nook, or Kindle.

You should order/get your book THIS WEEK.

As a comment to this post, tell me the title of the book you have chosen and your selected due date. Look at the course calendar and choose a THURSDAY that is listed on the course calendar as your deadline for turning in your book. You will turn it in hardcopy to me in class. Given that you are choosing your own deadline, no late papers are accepted. You may change your deadline throughout the semester as long as you provide 2 weeks notice. 

Allow sufficient time to read your book and write your report. Information on how to write your report is available via the course resources tab.
