Two things:
1. Some student resolutions still have not been submitted. If you have not submitted a resolution to my email, then do so. Think bowling. Think "I want to go bowling with the class". Think "Sssssssstrike!" Some resolutions have been submitted that need to be retouched. Your resolution needs to reflect on what you can do for yourself, not what the class or the teacher can do for you. For example, if you feel you lack understanding during lessons then perhaps your resolution would read as follows:
"I resolve to ask more questions in class, so that I will have a better understanding of the lesson."
If you find yourself having too much homework, then your resolution could read as follows:
"I resolve to use class time more effectively by completing assignments in class, so I do not have too much work to do at home."
If you feel confused during the lessons and do not feel confident in asking questions during class time, then your resolution could read as follows:
"I resolve to ask my teachers questions after class, so I have a better understanding of what I am expected to do or learn."
2. In class I did not state that if you find an environmental issue you would rather investigate than those on the list, then bring it to my attention for consideration. Here are some links for those of you being proactive investigating project topics:

Happy hunting!
Have a good weekend.
