(What is Sustainability?) Reading Notes

Details: 

While reading each assigned chapter in the textbook, you are to take notes as you read and upload them to Canvas for credit. The Weekly Objectives and Discussion Board prompts for each chapter can help guide your focus on what to take notes on, but you do not have to follow them to earn credit.

Why are you required to take notes? Reading notes are a required assignment because they provide several benefits. Reading the textbook chapters provides an alternative viewpoint on sustainability concepts, and writing the notes forces you to spend some time reflecting on what you just read. Note-taking is also an important skill to have when studying for any course.
