Tasks:

It is now the year 2056. Consider how the lives of the Chinese farmer, the U.S. software engineer, and the African parent have changed over the last 50 years.

Even when not specifically assigned to a given week, you may find the “Stakes and Stakeholder” and “International Voices” sections in your textbook helpful in crafting your answer.
