evaluation

This has been an interesting class; I understand the structure of how you designed the class from the beginning now that I’m at the end. I understand why we had to learn about the paradigm shift before you could introduce us to different cultures, and ways of living. I really enjoyed the lesson on paradigm shift a lot because it’s a way to expand and grow, not only through education, but also by expanding and growing through yourself. I’ve learned that you might think what you are doing is the best thing, because that’s all you’ve learned how to do. As a person we learn to protect ourselves and ourselves alone, but through different cultures we learn things different ways. And not everyone is always out to protect themselves; others are willing to help people because it was something they were raised to do. Along with different cultures, I’ve also learned that people have to agree to disagree; this is referring to a lot of the cases, on which people believe happened, and in the way it happened. When I learned that not everyone believe that the holocaust exist I was terrified, it actually scared me to believe that there were people who didn’t believe that such a drastic event like that could happen. I then looked at it from a different perspective; I had to see it from another angle which was from the KKK. A lot of people believe that the KKK had died a long time ago, that is doesn’t still exist today. Well those people are wrong, as much as people don’t want to believe that things had happened, and that there are things that still do happen they should face reality, but they won’t. People are a lot happier believing what they believe goes on outside, and what they feel that they should seclude from themselves as well as others, just to live a normal, decent life style. Professor Mcnair, is a great professor. I’ve had him for two semesters now, and I wouldn’t change him in the upcoming semester. Coming into the school, I random picked a professor, who was Mcnair. That semester everyone told me how hard his class was, how everyone was dropping out to another lady. I just looked at them and thought to myself, if they think he is hard, imagine going to a University. Mcnair, might be a little rough on the edges but he does it because he cares, and because he knows there is more potential in you then you lead to believe, so he tries to pull it out as much as possible. Over all Professor Mcnair is a wonderful professor and I’m glad to have a Professor with such talent and charisma as he does.
