Discussion Question for Module 4:
1. What was wrong in the United States during the Great Depression, and what was the solution?
2. What was the view from the powerlessthe common people Woody Guthrie represented?
The discussion questions are intended to synthesize the information from the modules lectures, readings, and media. You should be familiar with this material before attempting any discussion postings. Carefully think about the teachers posted questionand craft a thoughtful and well organized response. (I suggest that you create your response on a word processor and double check it forclarity, depth, complete sentences, and careless errors before posting it online.) I do not require you to include citations in yourpostings, but I do expect them to be thoughtful, well written, college level mini-essays that include specific evidence to back up your statements. (1-2 paragraphs)

Be sure to integrate readings, vocab, lectures, and media into your answer. Use facts and specific examples from our lectures and books to back up your analysis in each discussion response/replywith many specific examples, but do not pull out long quotes from our lectures or books. Paraphrase the information (in your own words) and respond directly to the question (in responses) andto your fellow students response (in replies). If you use a short quote from one of our books or lectures, put it within quotation marks and cite the source of that information.
