We will begin chapter 7 today. This chapter explains how contractual offers are created and ended and how acceptances are created. We will open with lesson 7-1, which lists the elements required to form a contract and describes the requirements of an offer. We will open with lesson 7-2, which describes how either an offeror or an offeree can end an offer and explains how the parties can create offers that cannot be ended by the offeror. //Homework//: I will post the facts of the case //Browneller vs. Plankenhorn// on my blog located on my website. Students are to comment on the blog leaving their opinions of what the court’s decision was and why, based on what we have discussed in class the last two days. We will open with lesson 7-3, which discusses the requirements of an effective acceptance and explains when an acceptance becomes effective. I will also post the court’s decision and the reasons on the blog. //Homework:// I will post the facts of the case //CRA Development vs. Keryakos Textiles// on my blog. Students will be responsible for commenting on the blog leaving their opinions of the court’s decision and why. Students will also be responsible for posting a link, in their comments, to a similar case which backs their opinion of the court’s decision. We will review the information in chapter 7 and look at some more cases as examples. Test day.  There are a few factors that will determine the number of points a student receives for his blog assignment. A student’s blog response must reflect the information being covered in class and show that the student understands this information. A student’s post should reflect that he has taken into account different factors, which could alter the decision of the court. And lastly, it must be written in complete sentences with correct spelling and grammar. Each blog assignment will hold a possible 15 max points. This gives students the opportunity to earn a possible 30 max points with the blog assignments this week.
