We are entering into the third stage of the project now.
We have 4 things to do: (1) to formulate our project objective,
(2) to formulate our project hypothesis, (3) spell out our
project rationale, and (4) design classroom teaching tasks.
We have a lot of things to do, don't we? There is no time
to lose.
