"How do I know what I think until
I see what I say?"
- E.M. Forster
Please take the time to carefully review the
following list of topics and activities from our first nine weeks
together. Use a highlighter to mark things that particularly made you
think. What types of things are these? What works for you as a
learner? Why? What doesn't? Why? What coping tools do you use when
you need assistance?
Write a one-page reflection on these questions
making specific reference to the list below. Please type your
reflection. Spell-check and edit, and turn it in by Wednesday,
November 8th.
