Please read through this unit's list of terms and conceptsprovided in the Key Terms module of this unit. You should look forthese terms as you read the assigned textbook chapters. The termsand concepts are important for understanding the material. Do notlook at each word as a separate entity that stands alone. Try tounderstand it in the context of the chapters' content. You shouldwrite out your own definitions for each term.
For this unit, please submit five of these termdefinitions for grading. A few words of caution: writingout the definitions is an important exercise, even the ones youdon't have to submit. For this assignment do not simply copy aone-sentence definition of the term. Instead, provide a definitionwhich relates to context and/or examples to best demonstrate yourunderstanding.
