 bounded choice

Bounded Choice: Two choices that are provided to a student to

encourage an interest-based decision that re-engages them in
learning. They are not punitive.

Individually, I would like you to relate this activity to a current task or activity you have
completed or are planning to complete with a class.

Task: Your task is to create two sets of bounded choices for that task. Share with your
group. Give each other ideas!
