Your homework… SELF-RELIANCE (n): Reliance on one's own powers and resources rather than those of others. What does self-reliance mean to you? Here are some questions to think about: -What role does nonconformity play in self-reliance? -How is trust in one’s self important to self-reliance? -If you are self-reliant, do you take into consideration what others think of you? Give me an answer to your question in any way, shape, or form that you would like. Perhaps you want to write a paragraph. You could write a poem. You could take a picture. You could make a collage. You could make a video. Whatever you choose, you need to be able to bring it to class and explain it. Show me that you’ve put thought and effort into it…impress me. This will be graded.
