what i have learned..

Although this was an online class, and I did not expect to learn much, I actually did! I learned a whole lot more than I would have ever imagined just through reading about other people’s insights on their blogs, as well as writing my own blogs every week. I can’t list everything that I have learned because there are just so many concepts, but I will focus on just the group facilitation final project. That project really enhanced my learning and grasping onto the concepts that I have learned throughout this semester. It was fun to know what my friends thought of each individual candidate, what their reasoning behind each claim was, and how so many of their critical thinking analysis remind me of the concepts I have learned in this class. Some of the concepts they used included arguments, contradictory of a claim, false analogy, unsupported generalizations, effective leadership, etc. I realized how extremely important it is to have a good leader within a group. Otherwise it is hard to get anything done. I really liked how I saw so many of these concepts while my friends were discussing, and it was interesting to know that they don’t even realize all the things they are using during their discussion. This final project has really helped me be able to recognize the concepts not only in the book, but also in our daily conversations.
