I have definitely learned a lot over the semester. I thought the discussions were very helpful because it showed different people’s ideas on a certain question and had us critically thinking about our responses. I felt like there were a lot of topics in the book that I was able to relate to and it was interesting seeing an explanation for something that I do or see normally. For example, we learned about inductive arguments and one of our discussion questions asked us when we used an inductive argument in the past week. Before this course if I was asked this question, I would have no idea what that meant. After learning about it through this course, it’s easy to say “Oh yeah, I did use that type of argument.” Something else I learned through this course was to pay more attention to marketing strategies that get people to stay in stores longer. After learning about ways stores do this, I’m definitely more aware and may be less likely to impulse buy because I’m in a section too long (i.e., near the pharmacy).
i have definitely learned a lot too throughout this semester, and i also found it intersting and helpful to always have a discussion about the things that we learn each week and have a chance for other people to see our opinion and comment and actually talk and be able to share ideas with eachother. I think that aspect of the class is very important and effective because it gives the students another outlook and have to question and think more about things.
