Sorry for the later post tonight.


I went through a presentation/lecture today that corresponds to Chapter 16 material called "The Impacts of Globalization on Groups in Society". I will send this presentation to you tonight, please print off four slides per page. Also, I assigned Chapter 16 Key Terms and Questions for homework tonight. I also announced that you will be writing your Chapter 15-16 Quiz next Wednesday, May 28th. The study guide is below.
