This Year's Class

This years history class worked very well for me. As a matter of fact, there isn't a lot I would change about the blogs or assignments. Watching movies helped to understand the subject we were studying. Blogs also helped in understanding what we were learning, and if for some reason we weren't able to get a blog done, being excused for it or giving more time helped a lot.

The only thing that I would change about the class is the amount of time we spent going over the blog topic, because I was pretty lost on a couple of blogs we did. However, the blogs helped in understanding the topic we were studying because we were able to go over it in writing the blog and in our research.

Whenever we couldn't get a blog in for whatever reason, giving us more time or excusing us helped, because we didn't have to be tied down all the time and stressed out about a lower grade that we couldn't help getting because of whatever the situation, whether it was a family or health issue. However, the blogs weren't the only things that helped in understanding the subject. The work done in class helped out as well

Watching movies helped us out a lot because the book didn't go in depth on anything, and by watching movies and taking notes in class, we were able to get into the subject and understand it more than if we would have just read the book. Whenever, we came to an important part in the movie, pausing it and explaining what was going on helped because when you let a movie run without pausing it and you're trying to take notes while the narrator keeps talking and going on to other important subjects, you miss a lot of the important points.


Many things worked out very well this year, like the blogs, the movies we watched in class and giving us more time if we needed it on our blogs. However, it would've helped a lot if we went over the blog topics in class more thoroughly.
