What’s Happening Week 15?
Wrapping it All Up
This week we begin to wrap up the course, except, of course, for the Final Exam which will be available 12:01 a.m., Monday, 5 May 2025 – 11:59 p.m., Thursday, 8 May 2025.
This week we’ll briefly go to Hungary and have a look at their population problem—not enough children being born, which is becoming a problem worldwide. Hungary, with one of the lowest birthrates in Europe, is, in effect, paying people to have babies. . . . And you’ll have the opportunity to add your two cents worth as part of this week’s Discussion.
And this week we're going speak about the unspeakable . . . about a topic tabooed to talk about worldwide . . . S###. And if you haven’t already done so, check out the World Food Clock (including food waste, water, and Tree Loss Clock).
After that, the end is in sight.
Another focus this week is having a look at your colleagues’ Presentations. Yes, this week we get to see the crown jewels of the semester—your presentations.
Live chat as usual on Tuesday evening, 7:00, to answer all of your unanswered questions.
