Topic: Paul
1.Did Paul die when he was stoned in Lystra? What is the evidence for each position, yes and no? Pauls testimony in 2 Corinthians 12 is often associated with this event. Is that valid? What are the reasons why it should or should not be associated with his stoning? Use the Bible, Ger, and one additional scholarly source to research this and to present your position.
2.Fresh on the heels of the Jerusalem Council, Paul insists on circumcising Timothy. Why would he consider this necessary? Was Paul being hypocritical, since the Council had just determined Gentiles need not be circumcised for salvation? Use the Bible, Ger, and one additional scholarly source to research this and to present your position.

Digital Regulation
1. Undertake the following steps:
Choose a (digital) technology that interests you
o To assist you, please see the non-exhaustive list provided below
Identify any issues/challenges/risks/threats to society that your chosen technology poses;
Identify the ways this digital technology is presently regulated
o To undertake this part of the exercise, you must apply Lessigs four modalities, but can also rely on additional theories of regulation like Murrays theory of network communitarianism and Laidlaws gatekeeper theory, etc.
Make a determination whether the regulatory framework for your chosen digital technology is efficient, sufficient, and working.
If you think the law is too strict, make recommendations for how you would change the present regulatory strategy to enable the digital technology.
If you conclude that your digital technology is under-regulated, present recommendations as how to constrain your technology through the further development of a further regulatory strategy.
If you conclude that the present regulation is sufficient, undertake an exercise to identify any potential risks to the digital technology.
Make a concluding statement as to why/how your regulatory framework will work better than the present.
Examples of digital technologies:
Intelligent agents (Alexa, Siri), Recommender technology
Delivery Drones, Personal Robots, Self-driving cars, Smart homes, Smart cities
Virtual reality/Augmented Reality Wearables
Algorithms and Machine-Learning Systems
Facial Recognition Technology
One class of items from the Internet of Things such as fitness wearables (like FitBit) or smart homes, smart toys, etc.)
3. Inform the course coordinator (m.r.leiser@law.leidenuniv.nl) who will need to approve the topic. Each will be approved on a first-come-first-served basis. If it is too similar to another students, I will advise you and you will need to choose a different one. When the topic is approved you can move on to the next step.
4. Thoroughly research the topic by looking for and reading information (articles, books, case law, laws, online information, news media). Make a plan for the paper (what goes in, what not; design a structure). You are strongly advised to follow the guidance in Step 1 above.
5. Write your paper. An academic paper is never perfect immediately (unless you are brilliant, but most of us unfortunately are not), so keep editing, deleting, rewriting, etc. Keep discussing the text within the group in order to fine-tune it until you think it cannot be improved. Ask a (near) native speaker to edit your text if you are uncertain about your written English. It does not need to be perfect, but it should be well enough (no big mistakes, clear sentences, logical reasoning) and readers should not have to think twice about what it is you are saying. Do not forget your references! The paper consists of maximum 2500 words, not including references. Students do not have to submit a bibliography if footnote properly.

Reflection Essay
During these unprecedented times we have all been faced with challenges and hardships that at times have seemed overwhelming. Everyones experiences, albeit perhaps very different, are all valid responses to the pandemic. For this assignment you are asked to reflect on your experiences in whatever way you feel comfortable. Throughout the class we will be reading about Chican@ and Native American History and the experiences of persons who have endured, survived and told their stories of resilience.
This assignment can take the form of a brief narrative (1-2p) or a creative piece such as a poem. There is NO limit on what you can write. Some examples of what you may reflect on are:
NOTE: (these prompts are not exhaustive, so feel free to write about anything beyond what is mentioned below)
what have you learned about yourself and others as you had/have to navigate the uncertainties that COVID-19 brings
how has your social identity (however you may identify) and that of others shaped your understanding and experience of COVID-19
as UTSA continues its path in a distance learning environment are there improvements you might suggest (note: this course has been taught asynchronously online for over five years); but you can still reflect on the way that UTSA has provided or not the needed in-person now virtual services of the university for students
given the uncertainty of COVID-19 for the next academic year how are you thinking or contemplating your future college experience
has this ongoing experience changed the way you have come to understand your responsibility to others and your relationship with friends, family, and the general population
more generally, you can simply tell your story, that is, how has COVID-19 affected you, how you are coping with it, what have you learned from it thus far, and how do you expect to move forward as we all grapple with the uncertainties that we are all facing
