IB Global Politics: The Week Ahead, 10-14 February

Things start to diverge a bit next week. HL2 folks; you'll be working to wrap up your first HL Extension Task while HL1 folks will begin our inquiry into the Politics of Nuclear Proliferation.

Monday-Friday: Work on HL Extension Task Presentations
Please note that presentations needs to be uploaded to your @mynbps YouTube account (set to private) and shared with me (cgleek@mynbps.org) no later than Friday 14 February. 
I will start marking these over the weekend.
