| Discussion Guidelines | |
|
1) The "leader" chooses the book and leads the discussion on it. 2) Discussion will be based on two lists of questions. 3) If she has time, the leader will share the list of questions she chooses to use with the group before the meeting. 4) If the leader chooses questions from outside these lists the additional questions should be sent by e-mail to all so that everyone has time to contemplate. |
