HARC0102 Exam 1 Study Slides • Study tip: Consider these slides as a window into a larger story . As you study, be sure to go back to your notes, textbook, and the slide presentations that are on the course site. Look at all the details and related images to widen your scope beyond the slide on the screen. I expect to see information from these other sources—don’t get stuck on the slide in front of you.
