2 files available upon enrollmentEither print out the Discussion Outline or have it available to type on for the class. There are two different outlines - "What is a Crime?" is the outline we will use during the first 5 weeks, and "Crimes Against the Person" is the outline we will use for weeks 6-10.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
