Each week I'll assign a 'text' for you. This might be an actual text to read, but it could also be a video, podcast episode, etc.
Each week we'll also have a quiz over this text! Remember, these quizzes aren't meant to be very challenging - my idea is that if you just actually engage with the text, the answers will be easy.
