You might choose concepts that you found the most interesting. Or, you might choose the concepts that presented a challenge for you to understand. Or you might choose concepts according to a theme you selected. Or, you might create some clever, creative scheme to present 5-8 concepts that appeared in the chapters reviewed so far in our course.

To complete the Digital Study Guide, your completed guide must be a multimedia piece or some other downloadable audio/visual piece of content. Use your creativity.
