Reflection

Final Reflection

 

Topic and Instructions:

 

We have made our journey together through this year relatively quick.  Right now is a good time to stop and take a break to reflect and think about the year.   Now is a good time to think about where we’ve been and what we’ve done, where we are and what we are doing, where we are going and what we will do next year.

 

Topic:

In this history class, what have you learned this year?

What do you believe you still need to work on more?

How/can you use what you have learned in other contexts?

 

I have two requests as you write:

1) Please write something substantial and well-considered (roughly 350-500 words).

2) Please refer to and point directly to pieces topic you have covered the entire year.

 

Short answer questions (1 to 3 paragraphs).  No one word answers will be accepted.  Answer will be marked wrong on principle.

What did you like about the class 1st and 2nd semesters?  Each semester has been conducted in a different manner (please note).

What did you not like about the class 1st and 2nd semester?  Each semester has been conducted in a different manner (please note).

What would you change about the class?

Reading on Governments Versus Economies

Read the link below for a simplistic account of governments and economies.  The article should give you a better understanding of the how governments and economies operated and/or came to power during WWII.  More importantly, you can apply the reading to today’s political and economic arenas.  Please pay attention to the reading to give you insight to our Presidential campaign, happeing now.
