3. Write a 1 page reflection on the ideas of the class. Which ideas did you most agree with or find most helpful and why? What ideas did you dislike and why? How have you connected the ideas together for yourself? Were there any important ideas that were not included in the class that you should have been? If so, why? (Note: I’m asking not so much for feedback on the class here, but your engagement with the ideas of the class. If you would also like to provide more general feedback on the class, that’s welcome. BUT be sure to first devote a page to engaging the ideas of the class first.)
