Your research work continues this week, and will be the primary focus of your writing work. We’ll be doing that against the backdrop of a conversation about office design that intersects with our larger discussions around inclusion and organizational culture.
See, all the work we’re doing individually overlaps with these other conversations–there’s a lot of thinking and writing around these issues, and we can learn from all of the pieces that we bump into.

Then, move on to this week’s work.
Reading
- “The subtle sexism of your open office plan”
- “Readers respond: open offices are terrible for women” (also linked from Bb)
- your own sources as you locate, take notes, and get ready to write about them
Writing

- Rounding out the Conversation (detailed in the Unit 2 dropbox) (due Sunday)
- Complete this week’s discussion work on the blog (due Thursday). See this post for prompts:
