Blog Assignment Week 11
These prompts are to be completed before class time on Tuesday, November 9.
1. You just turned in your unit 2 portfolios, so once again I thought I'd give you a chance to reflect on your work in the unit. In addition to assessing your own portfolio, I'd like you to think about this: it seems that most people in the class did much better work for unit 2 than unit 1; do you think your work fits this pattern? Do you have any theories as to why this is happening?
2. Secondly, I'd like each of you to write about the discipline you chose to study for unit 3. Do you plan on majoring in this field? If not, why did you select it? If so, what drew you to this field? I encourage you to answer these questions as honestly as possible, because for many of you this is a decision that could affect you for your entire life.
