The Course
Well let me see, most of the topics that we discussed where not what I expected, but thats a good thing. I've learned and have grown from this course any many different aspects. I really like how Kevin uses different styles of learning to help us understand any confusion we may have. This course has been very beneficial to me as a student and a future student. I really didn't think a course like this one would help me to incorparate information as a future teacher. Everything we talked about was very interesting and I really liked when we had group discussions because I not only saw my views but others as well. One thing that I enjoyed the most where listening to all the presentations. The presentation that I presented help me to see how gender can be a big issue in a class room. Other presentations that I really liked where the poem interpretation (using computers) and the comment presentatoion. Don't get me wrong each presentation were very beneficial those were the ones that caught my eyes. Overall the class was great, everyone had a chance to speak their mind and discussed issues that we have never thought of. Some of the issues we touched base on does matter to me like, the Moo because if teachers are using this type of system, then they need to realize none of the students are learning anything , but just random comments.

I felt the same way going into this course. I wasn't really sure exactly what I was expecting to get out of this class but I know it's not what we actually did learn. And I agree with you as well when you say that it's a good thing.
ReplyDeleteI loved the individual presentations too. Each presentation was so different and so imformative it showed just how many different aspects and issues there are in composition.
i agree that this course opened my mind to so many possibilities that lie within composition. We definetly don't have a boring field!
ReplyDeleteAs you mentioned, I too like the variety of how we were taught. The discussions were lively for the most part and not dry like you usual fare you get in Tech courses.
ReplyDeleteI was surprised by how much I enjoyed this course as well. I think the discussions are what really made this course so great. Being able to hear others thoughts on topics and voicing my own really help to put things into perspective.
