Description:
1) Write a summary including two or three main strong points of learning for the week. The source(s) for your points of learning could be class discussions, course materials and readings, articles (assigned or not) related to this week’s topics, and materials/lessons from other classes you are taking that relate to this week’s topics.
You can also approach this assignment as a “Highs-Lows-Hopes” or “Petals –Thorns – Buds”: what were your high points, or points of clearest learning (petals)? What were the low points, or areas where you had trouble (thorns)? What were the points that inspired hope for additional learning, or served as jumping-off points for other ideas/connections (buds)?
2) When we look at laws and courts, we are often looking at rules and institutions intended to dissuade bad behavior and resolve conflicts. What could be done, do you think, to create a society where people are less likely to engage in “bad” or criminal behavior, and where there would be less conflict? Give your answer some thought. NOTE: since there are societies with less crime than others, and periods in time where crime has declined, you should avoid the answer “nothing can be done.” Just letting you know. ?
3) Regarding the course work for this week…
-Were the participation forums effective? How did they relate to the course materials/readings?
-Was any of the coursework relevant to your own life? What could have made it more relevant?
-Were you prepared?
4. You might also include observations (what worked, what didn’t, critiques, etc) about the course content, class organization, and instruction methods.
The entire paper should be at least 500 words, and should be relevant and substantive.
Recommendations: write up your assignment in a document, save it in a folder on your computer or an external storage device, and then copy and paste it into the message field below. You can also include the file as an attachment if Canvas gives you trouble with copy and paste.
