State of the Union Assignment

Tonight is President Obama's final State of the Union.
Your assignment is the following:
1. Look over the different schools of theory questions. Pick 5-6 relevant questions that you feel will be helpful/applicable in listening to the President's speech.
2. Write these questions out on notebook paper. Leave some space in between.
3. As you are listening, keep in mind your questions. When you have ideas/questions/answers to your questions, jot them down under the coinciding question.
4. When the speech is finished, using your notes, you will have a two page typed response that answers the following question: How did watching the State of the Union and employing this analytical approach impact your comprehension/interest/awareness of this text?
