Last time, we began a jigsaw reading project; each of you read one of four essays, the readers of each essay spent 20 minutes talking together, and then each of you returned to your small groups to present your essay. Some of you were absent on Monday; you are still responsible to your group for providing them with insight into your essay.

For today, everyone should have read the selections from Capital and one other essay. Please break into discussion groups, and spend 20 minutes re-discussing the essays. Having read more now, do the arguments begin to make more sense to you? Where do you begin to sense connections between the four essays? Try to articulate the concepts that bind the essays together.

Each group should return to the whole with a concept that connects the essays, and any concepts that need further explaining.
